What is recorded here

Located on the NE side Annaghroe Island in the NE end of Lough Conn. The island lies close to the shore and is accessible via a causeway (MA039-069----), indicated as ‘Ford’ on the 1930 OS 6-inch map. This possible rath is shown on the 1838 and 1930 OS 6-inch maps as an embanked enclosure (diam. c. 25m). It has been entirely levelled; there is no visible trace at ground level. There is a rath (MA039-068) 100m to S. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 25 March 2020

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.
