The Sworn Sword

Around 211 AC, Lord Dagon and his ironmen raided along the western coast of Westeros. They raiding as far south as the Arbor, attacking and burning Little Dosk and carried off half the wealth of Fair Isle, it's said, and a hundred women, too. [2]

After Dagon's time the ironman have not raided the Reach until 300 AC.[3][1]
