What is recorded here

Corraneary in County Cavan, Ireland, contains a crannog, an artificial island or lake dwelling structure. The exact age, builders and purpose remain unknown because no detailed facts are available. It may have been a home, refuge or ritual place, but that is only possibility. What is clear is that Crannog in Corraneary is a real archaeological kind of place, not an invented story.
