Description
Off coast Gweedore, County Donegal, Ireland
Inishsirrer is a deserted island under a mile off the north coast of North Donegal along Wild Atlantic Way. This small settlement of Innishsirrer was once a thriving fishing community. Sadly now the island is completely uninhabited and all that remains is this little “Ghost Town” with abandoned cottages, shops, dry stone walls and a small harbour all echoing its bustling past
When I stare over this small island that is nowadays sadly left to the elements, I try to imagine how life may have been here back in the day. One can’t help but feel a strong sense of admiration towards its once hard working community during the good times that have now sadly long passed… but I hope those memories & tales will never be forgotten and will be passed down throughout the future generations through stories & photography
