this is main street - go from there.

This is a question you will ask yourself often in Castlebar.
Durning WWII, the residents of Castlebar took down street signs in order to confuse the enemy and make it harder for the streets to be patrolled. It worked, and as a memorial, a lot of the street signs have never been put back up.

 I only went on a couple of day trips to Castlebar, so it's not like I am a Castlebarologist, but I really liked it. It's very pleasant.

 Sorry! Though I have been to Castlebar, I was a little disappointed to be unable to locate ACHILL ISLAND (which is about a 45 minute drive from C'bar) and that would be the main purpose of this page!...
