WHO ARE WE?

Since 2009, our team has investigated daily life in three of the most westerly islands of Ireland: Co. Galway islands of Inishbofin and Inishark and Co. Mayo’s island of Inishturk. We are archaeologists, historians, and ethnographers, working together with islanders to document and celebrate island heritage. Please click on a team member to learn more about them
