Wonky Gravestones

This beautifully situated graveyard of Gleggan has for centuries been the mainland burial place of the island people of Ana and Inishbiggle. Poverty prevented most graves from getting a headstone. In the last 20 years the descendants have done a lot of work to restore the old unmarked graves and provide headstones. The graveyard also has a Holy Well where mass is said every year on 15 August.
The Polranny Pirates Foundation is a non-profit organisation that provides several work spaces on the West Coast of Ireland at cost price, to visual artists, writers, musicians, academics and other creative individuals. These are spaces for dreaming, working and generating ideas, and are available for periods of minimal 1 week up to six weeks. For two people, prices start at €17,50 p.p. per night for 8 or more nights. The same deal for one person is € 20 per night.
