Arkeragh is marked on the Ordnance Survey map as Black Rock but I was informed by a local resident that it is known locally as Arkeragh and that Black Rock is the dark rocky outcrop a couple of hundred metres to the south. Arkeragh is a small uninhabited tidal island located on the beach at Banna. When I visited in May 2023 it was covered in thrift, kidney vetch, bird's foot trefoil and daisies, all of which were in flower.
