The National Monuments Service's description
A small island is indicated close to the SW shore of the oval Drumard Lough (dims c. 450m NNW-SSE; c. 180m ENE-WSW) only on the 1835 edition of the OS 6-inch map. A small area with trees which is inaccessible in a smaller Drumard Lough (dims c. 300m NNW-SSE; c. 300m ENE-WSW) might be a crannog.
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.
