1588 ~ Streedagh Strand ~ County Sligo.

Some of King Philip of Spain's Armada run in to treacherous stormy waters and are pushed into the West coast of Ireland. The ships are crushed on the shore with many Spaniards losing their lives.

The beach is strewn with bodies some dead, some half alive, and some staggering around dazed.
