The National Monuments Service's description
In W half of Lough Nafullow, located on a bog-covered upland plateau. Tracts of forestry border the S of the lake. Listed in the RMP (1995) as 'crannog -possible' on the basis of an oval-shaped island (c. 25m E-W; c. 15m N-S) shown on the 1837 edition of the 6-inch map in the centre of the W half of the lake, with the townland boundary extends through the W edge of the island. The island is not shown on later editions of the map. It is possible that a rise in lake levels since 1837 has caused the submergence of the island.
