What is recorded here

Crannog in Carrick (Kilbarron parish), Meelick is a crannog in Carrick (Kilbarron parish), Meelick, County Tipperary, Ireland. The 2002 Tipperary inventory records it as a man-made island of piled timbers on a river-bed sand bank between Annagh Lough and Lough Derg. Wood-Martin wrote about it in 1886, and the inventory also records that it had become inaccessible and partially destroyed by recent river widening operations.
