Crannog

What is recorded here

Near the SE angle of triangular triangular Lough Elia (dims. c. 500m N-S; c. 200m E-W at N to c. 450m E-W at S), and indicated on the 1837 and 1909 eds of the OS 6-inch map as being c. 25m from the S shore. This is an oval overgrown area (dims. 39m E-W; 30m N-S) of earth and stone (H 0.5m) with no evidence of artificial construction on the S shore of the lake, but the dug-out canoe discovered in 1897 may be from near this site (Anon. 1897, 431). Crannog (RO017-144----) is c. 250m to the NW. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revised upload: 20 April, 2015
