This is Classiebawn Castle, on the coast north of Sligo Town shortly before you leave County Sligo to enter County Donegal. The guidebook tells me it was home to Lord Mountbatten, who was killed near here in 1979 in an IRA bombing portrayed on The Queen :-). Looks pretty gothic, doesn’t it? You’ve seen it in one prior post, but soon we’ll show you most of what remains from our short side-trip to this little peninsula in Sligo…
(so much world, so little time....)
