A village sited where the road to Ennis (5 km) crosses the Fergus estuary, which is navigable to this point. An O'Brien castle commanded the crossing and it was probably this castle, occupied by the Earl of Thomond, which gave its name to Clare County when it was created in 1576....

Athlone
Athlone
Athlone,Westmeath
From an unpretentious crossing point on the Shannon, the ford of Luan, Athlone, grew to be the largest town in Westmeath.; The possession of the ford of Athlone has been disputed from earliest times. In 1001 Brian Boru marched there with a great army; in 1129 King Turlough O'Conor erected a wattle bridge there and in 1199 the Normans occupied the town and in 1257 built the town walls, part of which can still be seen. After their defeat at the Boyne in 1690, the Irish withdrew to Athlone and m...

Westport
Westport
Westport,Mayo
The captivating Mall, where the re-routed Carrowbeg river flows through Westport on its way to the sea in Clew Bay, is a splendid example of the contributions made to Irish towns by enlightened landlords of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. In this instance, it was the Brownes, later Earls of Altamont, who beautified Westport in many ways and ultimately opened up their own home, Westport House, for public view....
Cultrasna Famine Village
Cultrasna Famine Village
Kiltimagh,Mayo
Located 2km from the town off the Kilkelly road, you will find an example of a "clumped village". This village formation was due to the population rise during the period 1800 to 1841. The area was subdivided into smaller plots where the people tried to sustain a living. These villages suffered drastically during the famine of 1845-1849. Renovations are currently underway to restore parts of the village to its original state....
Urlingford
Urlingford
Urlingford,Kilkenny
In Irish, Ath na nUrlaidhe, "the ford of the sledgings" according to O'Curry, where by tradition a battle was fought in the 10th century in which "the Irish and the Danes did sledge each other's heads". The ford from which the name of the pretty town is taken is marked by the bridge which crosses the River Gowl between the old parish church and the Butler Castle of Urlingford. The pre-Reformation church, though in a ruined condition, has substantially perfect walls. A large church stood here...
