Everything about Sheephaven Bay totally explained
Sheephaven Bay is a broad, shallow inlet on the north coast of
County Donegal,
Republic of Ireland. Bounded by the peninsulae of
Rosguill, to the west and
Horn Head to the west, the bay is relatively protected from the full force of the
Atlantic Ocean, and has supported a vibrant
Herring fleet.
Etymology
The gaelic name Cuan na gCaorach (Haven of the Sheep) is a neologism, from a mistranslation of
Cuan na gCurrach, The Bay or Haven of the
Currachs or Boats. When the name was translated to English, the word Ship (used by
monoglot locals for Boat) was misheard as Sheep.
