About Strand of the Old House

Strand of the Old House is a small beach in a rocky inlet on the Skahanagh coast, about 200 metres south of Trá na Bharaille. Local history records that the strand took its name from an old ruin that once stood nearby. The shoreline is visible in aerial imagery, but public access and visitor facilities have not been verified.
