The Stranorlar County Home or Stranorlar Mother & Baby Home, Stranorlar, County Donegal, Ireland was a Home for unmarried women from about 1924 until the 1960s. It was one of 18 institutions investigated as part of the Irish Government's 2021 investigation into abuse and high death rates at Mother & Baby Homes following the discovery of hundreds of children at Bon Secours Mother and Baby Home in Tuam, County Galway who had been buried in a septic tank. Stranorlar was included in the investigation as one of four state-run institutions to provide a representative sample of other similar Homes which were not investigated.
