Rock of Dunamase

The Rock stands 46m tall in the heart of what is otherwise a flat plain, and was ideal as a defensive position with its view right up to the Slieve Bloom Mountains. Excavations in the 1990s demonstrated that the Rock was first settled in the 9th century when a fort or dún was constructed on the site.
