CRANNOG in Lenaghan

CRANNOG

What is recorded here

CRANNOG is a scheduled crane site in Lenaghan, County Fermanagh. The official record gives no exact date, but the name and protection mark it as a place where people stood, watched or worked beside water long before modern maps existed. It may have served as a watching post, a meeting place or a marker for travel, and that uncertainty leaves the crane alive instead of dead.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CRANNOG. Recorded period: E.CHRIST.. Recorded protection: Scheduled. 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.
