What is recorded here

Indicated is a small subtriangular crannog in Killyvaghan Lough, County Cavan, sitting about 90m from the shoreline. It measures roughly 22m NNW-SSE and 18m ENE-WSW, small enough to overlook yet distinct enough to mark. Whether people lived there, tended it or simply knew it as a shape in the water is no longer certain. The lake has kept that much of the story to itself.
