HUMAN remains first discovered on Shenick Island almost a decade ago have become
significantly more exposed following recent storms and spring tides, raising fresh concerns
about coastal erosion on the Skerries islands and along the wider north Dublin shoreline.
Shane Holland, who runs Currachaí na Sceirí, said he returned to the same location on the
east side of Shenick in recent weeks and found “a scattering of human ribs and broken bones
in the clay of the newly collapsed embankment”, after “a chunk of maybe a metre had come
off” in the high seas.
“It was upsetting,” he said, explaining that the original discovery came as a shock.
