Lugo - City of Lugh, Celtic God of Light and all the arts. Lugo began as a Celtic agricultural settlement, was turned into a fortress by the Romans, and gradually returned to its pastoral existence after they left. Today, the city of Lugo boasts a complete enclosure of original Roman walls.

The Village of Slane had its beginnings in the mid-1700's, shortly after the Conyngham family took over the Lordship of the Manor. Most of the structures that date from the 18th century are of a similar design and construction. They were all built to the requirements of William Burton Conyngham. For this reason, Slane is refferred to as an "Estate Village". Come take a look at the architecture, and you will see what I mean.

The Village of Slane, County Meath, Ireland, is home to a number of ancient ruins, a relatively modern castle and one of the largest flour mills in Europe. It also contains some fine Georgian architecture in the village proper, most of which was built at the direction of the Conyngham family, the local Lords of the Land.
