  Description

  Indicated as a small island on the 1908 edition of the OS 6-inch map. This is a small roughly circular island c. 30m from the N shore at the W end of Tom's or Kilconny Lough, a rectangular lake (dims c. 440m ENE-WSW; c. 190m NNW-ESE). Davies (NMI Survey 1942) recorded many close-set piles protruding from the mud at the water's edge. At N he noted 'some radially set beams'. He also described a black layer 0.15m below ground level containing some bones and sherds. Other finds from the site include animal bones, teeth and millstones. 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: 22 December 2008 Amended: 28 October 2022
