What is recorded here
Indicated is a small circular crannog floating forty-eighty metres out in Lough Ramor, far enough from the shoreline to demand intention and faith. It remains marked on every survey, a stubborn dot of human presence in open water. Perhaps someone built it to watch the lake, hide from rain, or simply refuse the edge of the world.
Small circular island in Lough Ramor, c. 480m from the shoreline. Marked on all OS eds.
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.
