What is recorded here

The crannog in Owenbeg is in County Sligo, Ireland. The site sits centrally in Lough Nacreeva, where drainage transformed the water into wet, marshy ground. It appears as an oval-shaped, slightly raised area measuring 15 metres north-south and 10 metres east-west, close to the southern post-drainage shoreline.

Centrally located in Lough Nacreeva. Marked as an island on the 1837 and 1913 OS 6-inch maps. The lake has been drained and much of its original extent is now occupied by wet, marshy ground. This possible crannog is now located within the drained area, close to the S post-drainage shoreline of the lake. It comprises an approximately oval-shaped, slightly raised area (15m N-S; 10m E-W). No archaeological features were identified. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
