History of Inisheer

JuteVilla
class="apple-converted-space"> built in an ancient stone fort on top of the hill, and various church ruins including a church named TeampallChaomháin, which has to be uncovered annually as the floor of it is well below the level of the sand.

The cargo vessel Plassey was shipwrecked off InisOírr in the 1960s, and has since been thrown above high tide mark at CarraignaFinise on the island by strong Atlantic waves. The islanders rescued the entire crew from the stricken vessel using a breeches buoy- an event captured in a pictorial display at the National Maritime Museum in Dún Laoghaire, County Dublin
