Visiting Cork, Clare & Cavan
-
Hi all.
We visiting Ireland early next month for a family history and photographic holiday. We are planning on visiting Cork, Clare & Cavan (all family history related) and all places in between.
Our main interests are landscapes and history and we would love some local knowledge of places and areas to photograph. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thank you to Kev who pm’ed us, and to Phillip for pointing us to his amazing Flickr site. You have increased our excitement level over visiting Cork, it looks to be a stunning area. We plan on visiting Shronebeha and Banteer while in Cork, as this is where my O’Neill/Foley ancestors originated from , so hope to find something interesting around that area.
We would love to hear from others who may be able to help with the photography part of our journey, as I am sure Clare (Glasha for our family history part) and Cavan (Virginia and Bailieborough for the Family History part) and surrounds have some lovely spots too.

We are getting more excited as we get closer to departing. We arrive Sunday 29th May, just over a week away now. We will be spending Sunday through to Tuesday in Cork, then making our way up the West coast and by the following Saturday will be in Cavan. Hope to get some good photos and enjoy the Irish hospitality.

Just south of Banteer you would get great valley views on a good weather day on the Nad -> Cork road!
