What is recorded here
Gorteeny Island is a small islet in County Galway, so modest it may have vanished from memory rather than any grand event. It likely sat close enough to the coast for fishermen to see it, yet far enough to feel like a place kept from them. Perhaps it marked a route, warned of shallow water, or simply gave the sea one more reason to change shape.
