The word "Currick", a gaelic Corruption of "Carraig" meaning a rock, a cliff, a pinnacle, has been applied several times to rocks along this Coast. On referring the name "Sandy Currack" the Examiner Says that it is Correctly applied to the Small creek and the origin is supposed to have arisen from the fact of the fishermen having been in the habit of carrying sand in creels from this shore for the purpose of making mortar. "Currack" according to Jamieson is a Scotticism for a cart made of small twigs, which is supposed to be analogous to Creel in this instance. |
