What is recorded here
Connemara is a steam railway passenger ferry lost off County Down in 1916. She lies three to six metres down, her hull splayed two metres high in the dark water. The green marble of western Ireland still catches light in human hands, but this particular Connemara has given up her shape to the sea.
The official Northern Ireland wreck record identifies Connemara as Steam railway passenger ferry. It was lost in 1916. Recorded depth: 3-6m. Recorded condition: 2m high, hully splayed out.
The *Connemara* was a steam railway passenger ferry that sank in 1916 in Northern Ireland, likely due to collision or grounding. It was lost with no reported casualties, and its wreck lies in 3–6 metres of water, partially buried but still visible as a 2-metre-high, splayed hull.
A wreck point does not grant access or permission to dive, enter land, disturb the site or recover anything. Check current law and local conditions first.
