PREHISTORIC SETTLEMENT SITE in Round Island

PREHISTORIC SETTLEMENT SITE

What is recorded here

Round Island in County Fermanagh held a prehistoric settlement where early people shaped stone tools and watched the water. The official record preserves the site without naming its builders, but the shape of the place suggests patience, hunger and adaptability. Humans may have stood at that edge long before written history, reading the lake for permission to stay.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as PREHISTORIC SETTLEMENT SITE. Recorded period: PREHISTORIC. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
