What is recorded here

Indicated is a small circular crannog in Disert Lough, County Cavan, sitting about 100m from the shoreline. It is so overgrown that the boundary between made island and wild water has blurred into a single green breath. Someone may have stood there at dusk, reading the lough instead of being read by it.
