What is recorded here

Small roughly circular island (diam. c. 28m) called 'Currant Island'. Marked on OS 1836 and 1976 eds. In Lough Sheelin, c. 60m from the shoreline. On the 1913 ed. the island is shown as being part of the mainland, probably the result of a substantial drop in water-levels in the lake. 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
