What is recorded here
Horse Island in County Fermanagh still carries a bawn marked in the post-medieval period. The stone circle may have kept sheep, children or secrets from the rain. It is the kind of place where ordinary life still touches the old world.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as BAWN. Recorded period: POST-MED. 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.
