Roundstone - Galway - Harbour

The anglicised name is an error on the part of the British colonial Ordnance Survey who translated the village name; while Cloch certainly means Stone or Rock, Rón means Seal, not Round.

Roundstone

Roundstone (Irish: Cloch na Rón meaning 'Seal's Rock') is a village in Connemara, County Galway, Republic of Ireland, located on the west coast of Ireland. The town of Clifden is nearby to the north.

The anglicised name is an error on the part of the British colonial Ordnance Survey who translated the village name; while Cloch certainly means Stone or Rock, Rón means Seal, not Round.

The village has a thriving centre for designer/makers.
