Gates and doors and passageways - Dublin and elsewhere in Ireland

The photos were taken in September 2014. I wanted to put them in one spot - memories of the days of an all too short visit. *

The grounds of one of the cathedrals, perhaps St. Patrick's.

Dublin Castle

Glendalough, County Wicklow

Collins Barracks, Dublin

Glendalough, County Wicklow

St. Stephen's Green, Dublin

Haven't a clue.

At the National Library of Ireland looking towards the National Museum of Ireland - Archeology, Dublin

Somewhere in the countryside

GPO - General Post Office, Dublin **

Dun Aengus, Aran Islands, County Galway

I cannot remember, but we were on the Yeats pilgrimage. I suspect Lissasdell House or Coole Park. [It's Coole Park. I checked.]

One of the gates of Dublin Castle with an art installation (what appears to be paper flying up is actually sheets of porcelain).

Another "not sure," but I wonder if it isn't Markree Castle, County Sligo

Sligo Abbey, Sligo town

Countryside

Main gate, Markree Castle, County Sligo

Porte-cochère (coach gate) at Markree Castle, County Sligo

Maybe a back gate at Markree Castle. And yes, I did wander all over the property.

Shrine near Glencar Waterfall, Co. Sligo/Leitrim

Countryside

Dunsink Observatory gate, Dublin***

NOTES:

* I have been visiting calendars and travel sites. An escape seems to be calling.
**The GPO will be a busy place in 2016, the 100th anniversary of the Easter Rising.
