What is recorded here

Crannog in Lackagh More is a submerged oak structure in County Kildare, Ireland. Vigours excavated the site in 1893 and found worked bone, antler tools, deer remains and half a rotary quern stone beneath the beams. The chamber may have served as a seasonal kitchen, workshop or refuge, but its exact role has not survived.

In 1893, oak beams with mortices and other joinery features were discovered in a low, irregular mound on the edge of a bog. Archaeological excavations by Vigours (JKAS 1895, 399-402) uncovered ox and deer bone, some worked bone and antler implements, and half of one stone of rotary quern was found on a 'floor' beneath the beams.
