Doongrania

Islet

What is recorded here

Doongrania is a tiny tidal islet off Inishbofin whose name still claims a fort for Gráinne Mhaol, though the sea has taken most of the proof. At low tide a person can walk across and stand among faint house sites and a few surviving stones; at high tide the water returns, hiding the place again. What is left is small enough to overlook, but the name keeps the story alive: a strong woman, a remote coast, and a fort that the ocean slowly erased.
Doongrania is recorded as a islet in County Galway. Its open map record supplies this location and any linked names or public references.
