Location of Ireland's Eye in Newfoundland

Ireland's Eye was a small place near Trinity, now a ghost town.[1] It is accessible only by boat. A way office was established in 1886. The first waymaster was Thomas Cooper. The schooner Annie E. Conrad ran aground here on 16 July 1929. There was a post office between 1941 and 1965.[2] The population was 92 people in 1956. The community was "depopulated" on October 12, 1965.
