Heights are metres above or below OD Malin (about mean sea level); add about 2.5 m for heights above chart datum. Times are Irish time. Worked out from the Marine Institute's predictions for Roonagh Pier, at the mouth of Clew Bay, shifted to the Quay: high tide about 20 minutes later, low tide about 35 minutes later, from the Admiralty's 1868 Sailing Directions and its modern predictions for Inishgort. No tide gauge has measured the Quay itself.
