A vertical black and white photograph looking through a tall, narrow, dark stone archway. In the centre distance, a large Gothic revival castle stands illuminated by soft natural light, framed perfectly by the dark foreground. The castle is reflected symmetrically in the calm waters of a lake below. Above, the sky is filled with textured clouds, creating a dramatic and moody atmosphere.

Sometimes the best view is through a stone archway. Johnstown Castle looking majestic in monochrome this time last year. The symmetry of that reflection is so satisfying! 🏰🇮🇪

A vertical night photograph capturing the ornate clock tower of Dublin Castle, illuminated by warm, reddish-orange uplighting. The tower features a dome and circular clock faces visible through arched windows. The foreground is partially framed by out-of-focus green boughs of a Christmas tree adorned with warm white fairy lights, creating a strong festive atmosphere. A small statue is visible near the upper right section of the tower.

A long, symmetrical view of Powerscourt House and Gardens in County Wicklow, Ireland. The image is centred on a grand stone staircase with ornate statues of horses on either side, leading up a green hill to the stately home. In the foreground, a large pond covered in water lilies and algae features a small, moss-covered fountain. The main house is a light grey Palladian mansion with a central section and two projecting wings, topped with green domes. The sky is overcast.

A monochrome photograph of the ruins of Baltinglass Abbey in County Wicklow, Ireland. The view is framed by a stone archway in the foreground, looking out to the central bell tower and the remains of the abbey's walls. The sky is slightly cloudy and the ground is covered in small stones and graves. A black wrought-iron gate stands slightly ajar to the right, leading into the ancient grounds.

A monochrome photograph of a weathered stone round tower and a section of a smaller, rectangular stone tower against a clear, dark sky. The round tower dominates the left side of the frame with its rough texture and small, arched window openings. The smaller structure on the right has intricate stonework and a crenellated top. The contrast is high, emphasising the textures of the stone and the dramatic shapes of the towers against the stark sky.

A low-angle interior shot within Tintern Abbey, Ireland, showing a tall, arched window with multiple panes and a diamond-shaped lattice pattern. The window casts intricate, patterned shadows on the wooden floor. Outside, a bright green field and trees are visible under a bright sky. To the left, a framed image hangs on a white brick wall, and to the right, another framed painting is partially visible, also on a white brick wall. The scene evokes a sense of historical tranquility and natural beauty.

Did you know we have a pyramid in Limerick?
This is the Bannatyne grave in St Munchin's Churchyard.
