What is recorded here
Small island in Deralk Lough, c.70m from the shoreline. From the shore it appears as a roughly circular vegetation-covered mound (diam. c.15m). Davies (ITA Survey 1942) noted a stone kerb at the perimeter of the island and a few piles and a good deal of horizontal timbers on the S shore.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
