What is recorded here
Indicated is a small almost oval crannog in Drumeague Lough Lower, County Cavan, sitting about twenty-five metres from the shoreline. It measures roughly thirty metres north-west to south-east and twenty metres north-east to south-west. The island is so modest that it did not appear on the 1836 or 1876 Ordnance Survey maps, yet it still belongs to the lived landscape of Cavan’s lakelands.
Not marked on OS 1836 or 1876 eds. Small almost oval-shaped island (dims. c. 30m NW-SE; c. 20m NE-SW) in Drumeague Lough Lower, c. 25m from the shoreline.
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.
