Rossadillisk

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rossadilisk (Irish: Ros an Duilisc) is a townland in the civil parish of Omey in County Galway Ireland.[1][2]

The townland is located to the east of Cleggan and north of Claddaghduff, on the Atlantic coast.[3] The townland was devastated by the 1927 Cleggan Bay Disaster which saw the death of 45 local fishermen. The townland has largely been deserted since then.[4]
