The harbour, which is formed by the strait or channel between the island and the mainland, may be entered both from and south; it is well sheltered, has deep water, and vessels passing through are exposed to little danger from shoals or sunken rocks: to the north of it is Beg innis island.
This island, from its great fertility, was looked upon as the granary of the south-west of Ireland, previously to the facilities that have been lately afforded for the transmission of agricultural produce through the interior by the construction of well-planned and well-constructed roads.
From 1863 Valencia was in the Caherciveen Superintendant Registrar's District, and the Registrar's District of Valentia.
