Recorded monuments

• CV011-018 Castle - unclassified
  Description

  Depicted as a large building (dims c. 20m E-W; c. 10m N-S) perhaps with a wide projection on the N side, and described as Grilly Castle in Ruins on the 1835 ed. of the OS 6-inch map and as (Site of) on subsequent eds. It is situated on the W slope of a drumlin and on the S side of an old road to Belturbet. Possibly an O'Reilly stronghold. Although there are now no visible remains of this monument at ground level, an earlier account (Davies 1947a, 91) noted some grassed-over mounds possibly marking the outline of a small building. During land clearance in the vicinity in the early 1980s red brick and rubble were uncovered (local information). 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

  Description

  Not marked on any OS ed. Situated in Grilly Lough, c. 80m from the shoreline. A few large stones protruding above the water-level of the lake presumably represent a crannóg cairn. Known locally as a crannóg. 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
