What is recorded here

Indicated is a stony crannog beside Carrigeencor Lough in County Leitrim, Ireland. It measures about 12m across, rises 1m above the water, and shows no evidence of artificial construction. The lough stretches roughly 1.2km north-south and 300-400m east-west, placing the island 100m from its south shore and 150m from the east shore. With little vegetation and no visible works, it may have been a marker, refuge or forgotten household rather than a built island.

Situated c. 100m from the S shore of Carrigeencor Lough (dims c. 1.2km N-S; c. 300-400m E-W) and c. 150m from the E shore. This is a stony island (diam. 12m; H 1m) with little vegetation cover and no evidence of artificial construction. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 23 September 2008
