What is recorded here

Cottage Island on Lough Gill held a white-canons church before it became the last home of Beezie Gallagher, who died there in 1949. Her cottage still stands in ruins beside the medieval walls, while drowned boats and forgotten bones wait beneath the green water. The lake keeps both its religious and human histories, waiting for someone brave enough to look beneath the surface.
Cottage Island is recorded as a islet in County Sligo. Its open map record supplies this location and any linked names or public references.
