What is recorded here

Small irregular-shaped island (max. dim. c. 26m NE-SW) in Annagh Lough, c. 40m from the shoreline. When water-levels are low during the summer months the island is in fact joined to the mainland. Davies (NMI Survey 1941) recorded a rectangular house foundation (int. dims. 6.7m x 8.8m;H 3.8m) comprising large upright blocks with apparently a good depth of earth inside. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008
