What is recorded here
Mid Island is an islet in County Down, Ireland. Perhaps the sea carved it into a small disc and withdrew, leaving behind a stone button fastened to the coast. Maybe people skipped it in conversation because it offered no harbour, no road and no promise of return. Imagine standing at its edge with a rope in one hand and a question in the other, waiting to see whether the water would give either back.
Mid Island is recorded as a islet in County Down. Its open map record supplies this location and any linked names or public references.
