Lots of interesting things to see and do in Tramore. It lovely to visit the Metal Man. Great views and walks around Tramore

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Westtown, Tramore, Co. Waterford, Ireland

The Metal Man stands on one of three pillars near Newtown Cove, the maritime beacons were constructed through Lloyds of London at the behest of the Admiralty after the tragic loss of 360 lives after HMS Seahorse sank after becoming grounded at Brownstown Head in bad weather, this tragedy happened in 1816.

The Metal Man is still standing today and dressed in British sailors clothes, a blue jacket, red top and white trousers. The Metal Man is currently on private land and entry to the lands is blocked as the cliffs around the three pillars are very dangerous and unprotected.

The iron metal man figure itself was designed by Thomas Kirk. Only two of the four figures originally planned to make, were cast from that mould and the other figure sits in the water of Sligo Bay at Rosses Point, here the Metal Man is on a small pillar down in the harbour and not visible from long distances like the one in Tramore. The 3 towers at Westown and their sisters at Brownstown Head, Tramore were erected in 1823. They are sometimes thought to be the work of Alexander Nimmo, the same architect who designed Dunmore East lighthouse. However, information from the Inspectorate of Irish Lights mentions that George Halpin Snr. was responsible for their design.

Croke Park has been at the heart of Irish sporting life for over 100 years. With a capacity of 82,300, this magnificent stadium is actually the third largest in Europe.

Its size is only part of its greatness, however, as you’ll discover on this eye-opening, access-all-areas tour. From quirky insights into why Croke Park’s grass is always greener to learning about defining moments in Irish history, the passionate Tour Guides will take you on an inspiring journey around our national stadium.

I suggest we visit Lough Boora and do the nature trail through the outdoor sculptures and then have lunch at Woodfield Café and Garden Centre on the outskirts of Birr town:

Woodfield Cafe & Garden Centre - Birr, Offaly (woodfieldbirr.ie)

This option is great for exercise in an easy walking and beautiful environment and is free.
The food in Woodfield is organic and what they haven't grown themselves, is source them from Lough Boora Organic Farm & Coolnagrower Organic Farm. Yummie!

We are aware of an error on Google Maps with regards the location of Lough Boora Discovery Park.

Please note, you must include the full title, Lough Boora Discovery Park, to ensure you are directed to the correct location. If you only enter Lough Boora, you will not arrive at the destination.

We are working on correcting this to ensure all our visitors have a pleasant experience when travelling to and from our parklands. Thank you.
