What is recorded here

Inish Octa, an island in County Fermanagh, holds a mound marked as a battle site from 1499, though the earth itself reaches further back into prehistory. The island has watched armies and forgotten lives come and go, its soil absorbing what men thought they could conquer. The mound remains scheduled and untouched, a quiet witness to violence and time.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MOUND & BATTLE SITE (1499): INISH OCTA. Recorded period: C15TH; PREHISTORIC. Recorded protection: Scheduled. 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.
