About this product

Product Information

Actor Simon Delaney explores the great stories and characters associated with the most beautiful, notorious and historical castles built across Ireland. The six shows investigate the key role that Irish castles (mostly financed by the British crown) played across the centuries and with stunning aerial footage, the series takes the audience on an incredible journey throughout the island of Ireland. Starting in the 11th century, Simon documents these magnificent stone structures and the stories contained within their walls, bringing them to life through specially shot re-enactments, archive footage and contributions from Ireland's leading historians, archaeologists, castle owners and dwellers. The series uncovers the political state of Ireland in the 12th Century, leading to the invasion of the Normans in 1169. The Normans introduced the concept of castle building to Ireland and before long castles began to spring up throughout the country, in particular along the more populated east coast. Other Irish Castles featured throughout the series include Luttrellstown in Dublin, Kilkenny Castle, Dunamaise Castle in Laois, Clonony, Birr, Charleville and Leap Castles in Offaly, Cahir Castle in Tipperary, Dunluce Castle in Antrim, Aughrim Castle in Galway, Tullynally Castle in Westmeath, Castle Leslie in Monaghan, and Blarney Castle in Cork.

  • Smorgasbord of Ireland for your Eyes

    I'd been lucky enough to see this dvd previously & was thrilled to find it again as I luvved the whole interaction of the stories, the histories & the scenery - WOW !! It showed part of Ireland I had previously been blessed enough to visit & to see Ashford Castle in Cong, Co Mayo again was great. There is so much history in Ireland that everyone should be interested. The knowledge of constructing the Castles in the different time periods was fascinating too. This dvd is well worth a look if you luv Ireland & history.
