    In the year of 1927 we had a rageing storm that broke the banks of Mellon, Ballydoole and Shannongrove. Shannongrove banks is still in a wreck but the other two are build up again.
    About five years ago a schooner was dashed against the rocks of the boken bank of Shannongrove. It had to wait for a Spring tide to go away.
