Carlingford Priory

All along the streets of Carlingford you'll see various medieval buildings right in between the houses and shops.

This is for instance the Carlingford Priory and is actually in a rather bad state of repair in comparison with places like the Mint or the Jail. It's still quite something and I enjoyed walking around there very much.

King John's Castle, Carlingford

I haven't managed to find out what the relationship between this castle and King John's Castle in Limerick is. I can only assume that it would've been the same King John who commisioned both but what he would've come to the west of Ireland for is a mystery to me.

The castle is rather cool and the way they light it up at night makes for a great landmark.
