Visit Notes

Thursday, 21st March 2002

I really want to get out to Dalkey Island to see this church. It looks fantastic, especially in the early moring with the sun rising behind it.

Scattered around it are the remnants of the 10th century monastic settlement, but the roofless church ruin is the only building now visible.
