What is recorded here
Indicated is a small stony crannog in Gulladoo Lough, County Leitrim, still ringed by timber stakes and scattered planks. It sits forty metres from the north shore, reachable by a faint causeway at the northwest and a stone pier at the southeast. The lake may have closed around it, but the wooden markers still point inward like hands waiting for someone to return.
Located c. 40m from the N shore of the subrectangular N part (dims c. 300-370m E-W; c. 340m N-S) of Gulladoo Lough (L c. 3km NE-SW). This is an overgrown stony island (dims 17m N-S; 12.5m E-W; H 1m) surrounded by timber stakes (max. diam. 0.2m) and planks lying at the water's edge. A stone pier is visible at SE, as is a causeway at NW.
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.
