The nearest look out post to the Blasket Islands is Dunmore Head which is on the mainland. It was LOP number 38. There wasn’t a LOP on the Great Blasket that I was aware of and most signs were linked with the nearest LOP hence the classification. At the moment, it does not look to me as though the number is intact for this location so I cannot confirm absolutely.
(Bing)
Location on Google is clouded over.
Dunmore Head is actually on the mainland. Eire sign is beside signal tower on first peak. Can’t find the name of the peak.
That’s right. Most of these signs were aligned with a numbered Lookout Post of the Coastal Watch, and the nearest for the Blasket Islands is Dunmore Head which was LOP number 38. I will add a note to the main post about this.
I mean first peak on the island.Sorry!
