What is recorded here

Lambay Island is the largest island off the east coast of Ireland, sitting four kilometres offshore from Portrane in the Irish Sea. Vikings called it Lamb ey because people probably drove ewes ashore in spring to lamb away from land predators. That simple idea still shadows the place: a small green world where life could continue without being hunted.

Lambay Island is recorded as a island in County Dublin. Its open map record supplies this location and any linked names or public references.

Lambay Island, located off the coast of County Dublin, has a history dating back to early Christian times, with a 6th-century monastery established there by St. Cianan. It is notable for its strategic military use in the 20th century and its association with the Guinness family, who owned the island for many years.
