What is recorded here
Crannog or island, the distinction barely matters when water claims the land. In County Fermanagh, the lake does not surround the place; it completes it. A crannog is a room built against drowning, and the room still stands.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ISLAND, possibly CRANNOG. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
