Uncategorized Inis Oirthir Posted by gearoidomaonaigh on May 12, 2016May 12, 2016 I was looking out to sea at this abandoned island. I liked the image. The name of the island is in Gaelic. The name is pronounced and sounds like ‘Inish_shurher’. It is known in English as Inishsirrer. It means the eastern island. Share this:TweetLike this:Like Loading...
