Check the tides before walking here

by Fergalh 14 May 2023

Parked at 906350 star

A at small jetty (Having checked tide first) and walked over a rough tidal track to a small islet between the mainland and Illaunmore. From here the track zigzaged between the rocks before arriving on the island. A green road runs the length of the island bypassing numerous empty houses and an abandoned one room school to the opposite end of the island. At one stage incredibly according to the 1841 census 89 people lived here. Pleasant island great views Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/2263/comment/23949/
