What is recorded here

Indicated is a one-metre crannog in County Monaghan, Ireland, still standing as a grassy disc beside a drain in Killyneill. It is the kind of place where people may have built rooms on poles, watched rain fill the ditch, and left the wood to rot into earth. What remains is small enough to walk around in a minute, yet large enough to imagine a whole life suspended above wet ground.

ituated in a low-lying area. This is depicted as a D-shaped scrub-covered area (dims c. 35m NE-SW; c. 30m NW-SE) in Killyneill townand backing onto a NE-SW stream or drain at SE on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map, which is also the townland boundary with Garran Itra. This is a raised grass and scrub-covered subcircular area (dims c. 31m N-S; c. 26m E-W; H c. 1m), which may be a crannog.
