- CV019-033 Crannog
Description
One of two small islands marked on the OS latest edition, situated in a narrow inlet of Lough Oughter between the townlands of Gartnanoul and Derries Lower. The level of the lake has been lowered and both islands are now joined to the shore by a marshy stretch of land. The more northerly of the two islands appears to be entirely natural. Davies (ITA Survey 1942) described an oval cairn of small stones (dims. 19.8m x 11.2m) rising to 2m above water-level on the S island. He described the cairn as a habitation site and noted that some animal bones were found on the shore c. 100m ENE. 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

- CV019-035 Megalithic tomb - court tomb
Description
Located in a slight N-S valley in a clearing within a Forest Park at the W edge of Lough Oughter. This tomb was never marked on any edition of the OS 6-inch map but it was known locally and was always excluded from forestry operations. The dual court tomb consists of two galleries placed back to back with a large space (L 7.5m) separating their back-stones. The galleries lead to courts at N and S. The N court (int. diam. 3.8m N-S; 3.6m E-W) has about 10 stones and is almost completely closed, but its N end is incorporated in the remnants of a NW-SE field wall. The gallery (int. dims 3.4m N-S; 1.35m E-W at S to 1.9m E-W at N) has no roof-stones in place and consists of a single chamber (max. H of stones 0.8m) entered over a low sill (Wth 0.5m) between two jamb-stones at N, although there may be an internal jamb-stone at W. The S court (int. dims c. 4m N-S; 3.6m E-W) is open (Wth 2.4m) to the S where the S façade of the cairn (L 10.3m E-W) partly survives with some cairn material. The S gallery (int. dims 4m N-S; 1.3m E-W at N to 2.2m E-W at S) is divided into two chambers (max. H of stones 0.9m) by a sill-stone, and the N chamber has always had a pit in its floor. (Ó Nualláin 1977, 58; 1989, 116, Cv.40) This is a National Monument in state guardianship (NM00570), and can be approached by a cleared footpath from an E-W forestry road, c. 90m to the N, although it is not sign-posted from this point in July 2018. 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 revision: 27 July 2018
