Rockfield Lake (Irish: Loch Pháirc na Carraige, meaning 'Lough of the Field of Rocks'[1]), also known as Rockfield Lough, is a lake or lough situated between Carrigallen and Killeshandra, two small towns on the northern edge of the Midlands in Ireland.[2][3][4][5][6] Nowadays, part of the lake is in County Leitrim, which is part of the Province of Connacht, while most of the lake is in County Cavan, which is part of the Province of Ulster.[2][3][6] This means that the provincial boundary between Connacht and Ulster now runs through the lough. However, up until the early seventeenth century, all of the lake was considered part of County Leitrim in Connacht. The Cullies River (Irish: An Abhainn Dubh,[2] meaning 'the Black River') flows through Rockfield Lake, entering the lake at its southern end and flowing out of the lake at its north-western end. This small river flows from nearby Cullies Lake, and flows on, via Drumhart Lake, through Rockfield Lake to Glasshouse Lake.[2][3][6]
Rockfield Lake covers about 94 acres (around 38 hectares) and is just over 36 feet (just over 11 metres) deep at its deepest point, this point being at the southern end of the lake.[4] The surface elevation of the lake is 154 feet or 47 metres.[3]
