What is recorded here

Indicated is a small, tree-covered crannog floating fifty metres from the Cavan shoreline, forcing any visitor to leave solid ground behind. Its circular shape and dense vegetation suggest humans once chose isolation, privacy, or defiance of ordinary life. The lake may have hidden footsteps, voices, and daily rituals from everyone but the people who lived there.

Marked on all OS eds. Small, tree-covered, circular island (diam. c. 25m) in White Lough, c. 50m from the shoreline. 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
