What is recorded here
Crannog in Lough Gara is a crannog in Lough Gara, County Sligo, Ireland. Cross indicated the site southwest of another crannog in 1953, but Fredengren could not locate it in 2002 because tall reeds cover the area. The Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo published this uncertain identification in 2005.
Indicated as a crannog, SW of another crannog (SL047-041003-), by Cross (1953, fig. 1). The area is overgrown with tall reeds and the possible crannog was not located. (Fredengren 2002, KILA 037)
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo' compiled by Ursula Egan, Elizabeth Byrne, Mary Sleeman with Sheila Ronan and Connie Murphy (Dublin Stationery Office, 2005).
