Indicated

Crannog

What is recorded here

Indicated is a crannog on a small island beside the eastern bay of Tom’s or Kilconny Lough in County Cavan. It is about ten metres across, still carrying a tree, and it sits close enough to the shore to tempt a person into wading toward it. The water may have hidden it from most feet, but the lake still holds the shape of a place made for notice.
Situated c. 30m m from the S shore of a small bay (dims c. 200m E-W; c. 80-100m N-S) at the E end of Tom’s or Kilconny Lough. This is depicted as a small island only on the 1908 edition of the OS 6-inch map and it is visible on all the aerial media as a small island (diam. c. 10m) with a tree. It was first reported by Anne-Karoline Distel and is not yet visited. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 28 October 2022
