Ooo! I love a lighthouse - and streetview goes up to the balcony at Loop Head - www.google.com/maps/@52.5609337,-9.9321883,2a,75y,81.38h,... EDIT - WRONG LIGHTHOUSE ! But it's worth a look anyway!

It's not recorded as Sampson's Island anywhere else, as far as I can tell. It looks as if someone (Mr. Sampson, perhaps/) has built a shelter out on the island, as well as putting up a sign.
