Recorded monuments

• LE032-081 Ringfort - unclassified
  Description

  Situated in pasture in a low-lying landscape with the W shore of Lough Erril c. 30m to the NE. A small subrectangular embanked enclosure (ext. dims c. 25m NW-SE; c. 16m NE-SW) is depicted on the 1835 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described as a ‘Fort’ and it is depicted as an oval hachured feature on the 1945 revision. It was recorded as a slightly raised platform that was known locally as a ‘Fort’ in the 1940s (OSFM). No archaeological feature is visible at ground level in rough pasture, and its true character is not known. 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. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload/revision: 15 December 2011 Amended: 6 December 2109

• LE032-095 Crannog
  Description

  Located in the NE corner of Cloonfinnan Lough, a subrectangular lake (max. dims c. 700m NNW-SSE; c. 400m ENE-WSW) represented as slightly larger (max. dims c. 770m NNW-SSE; c. 425m ENE-WSW) on the 1835 edition of the OS 6-inch map. A submerged circular area (diam. c. 20m) of cut logs and timber stakes (max. L 3m; diam. c. 0.45m) can be seen c. 1m below the surface of the water and probably represents an unfinished crannog. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003).
