OBriens Castle

TIME : 2016/2/18 22:18:28

A 100m climb to the island's highest point yields dramatic views over clover-covered fields to the beach and harbour. This 15th-century church (Caisleán Uí Bhriain) was built within the remains of a ring fort called Dún Formna, dating from as early as the 1st century AD. Nearby is an 18th-century signal tower.
