The National Monuments Service's description
Listed in both the SMR (1989) and the RMP (1995) and classified as 'Crannog'. This is indicated as an islet on the 1838 and 1914 editions of the OS 6-inch maps in the W side of Cloonacleigha Lough. Upon inspection in 2000 it was concluded that it is probably a natural continuation of the adjacent peninsula. The area is full of bog islands and no remains of a crannog were identified.
