Mellifont Abbey was the first Cistercian abbey built in Ireland in the 12th century. Less than 10 miles northwest of Drogheda in County Louth, all that remains the original abbey is the 13th-century lavabo, a 14th-century chapter house and some Romanesque arches.

Thursday Doors - In the Pink

Thursday Doors – In the Pink

Welcome to another Thursday Doors and this week it’s in the pink. If you’re familiar with that expression you’ll know it refers to being in extremely good health and spirit. This week’s door, or should I say doorway, belongs to a building that isn’t exactly in great condition but is definitely ‘in the pink’. It was found by one of my sisters, so thank you Anne for your much appreciated…

Thursday Doors - Coffee and History

Thursday Doors – Coffee and History

Thursday Doors brings you a virtual coffee with a dash of history this week. Sitting in the cafe next to the Tourist Information Office in the center of Dundalk is a great way to start off a tour of the town. While you sip your preferred beverage, you can browse through the abundant supply of information leaflets on what to see and do on your visit to county Louth. If you’re hungry, there’s a…

A beautiful sunny Sunday in Carlingford. We kicked off our annual leave yesterday with a night away in Carlingford, a beautiful town just over the border. Plenty of great food & drink, and wonderful weather.

Thursday Doors - Strandfield House and Farm

Thursday Doors – Strandfield House and Farm

I had a really good time capturing shots for this Thursday Doors post from Strandfield House, Ballymascanlon, County Louth. On a working farm we found a beautiful barn converted to an all-organic vegetarian restaurant. After a fabulous lunch that included the best sourdough bread I have ever tasted, we browsed around the adjoining bakery, florist and homewares shop. For this week’s post let’s…

Thursday Doors - Seaside

Thursday Doors – Seaside

Continuing on from last week’s Thursday Doors, I have a few more images to share of the seaside village of Blackrock in County Louth. On one side of the street there’s the view above, a wide expanse of sea and sky. But if you can drag your eyes from those beautiful cloud formations and look at the opposite side of the street you’ll see some nicely maintained buildings.

I love how this Chinese…

Thursday Doors - Ice Cream With a View

Thursday Doors – Ice Cream With a View

I might have used this image for a Thursday Doors post in the past, so forgive me if it looks familiar. I was in my native village of Blackrock last month and as usual couldn’t resist taking some photos. I like how the old empty house has been dressed up to appear lived in. Much nicer than the usual boarded up windows and doors we often see on vacant premises. The building across the street is…
