Early Medieval Ireland is known for some of the finest metalworking objects of #IrishArchaeology, including the Ardagh Chalice, but what about the everyday objects used by people at the time? @AidanOSulliva15 explores the material of early Irish households

Making their Manifesto and voices be heard at the Young People’s Assemblies of artist Anthony Haughey @NMIreland about a wide range of challenges in todays Ireland.
A wonderful reference to the Old Countess of Desmond, who lived for a time at Dromana House, Co. Waterford. And reputed friend of Sir Walter Raleigh
#ThroughHerEyes
Here's one to try. In the 16th C, Francis Bacon said the reason Irish people lived so long was that they basted themselves in salt butter and sat naked before a fire!
He was speculating on how the famous Old Countess of Desmond had lived to 140.
