Located towards the E end of Gortconnellan or Spa Lough, a rectangular lake (dims c. 550m ENE-WSW; c. 230-300m NNW-SSSE). This is an overgrown island of sand and gravel (dims 28m N-S; 23.5m E-W; H 1.5m) which has been planted with coniferous trees. There is no visible surface evidence of artificial construction, but its origin as a crannog is very likely.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
