This week I took a spin over to Eyrecourt in County Galway. Once a bustling town of Industry now a quiet detail of its past.

Developed into a market town by the Eyre Family who were given confiscated land during Cromwell's Reign.

A patent from the Crown meant the Colonel John Eyre could erect a Castle on the Estate comprising of 30,000 acres.

The following links will show you what the Castle looked like and of course the beautiful Stairs.

Now it stands a crumbling ruin with the Staircase in crates in the Detroit Institute of Arts.
