What is recorded here
Crannog or island, the distinction still wobbles in the water. That uncertainty is not a gap, it is the shape of the place: a man-made island in a living lake, built to be seen and remembered. Polepatrick gives it address; the water gives it life.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ISLAND, possibly CRANNOG. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
