Great to see Malcolm Noonan, Minister of State for Nature, Heritage and Electoral Reform enjoy a walk through the Rhodedendron Gardens in Howth Castle Estate. He walked on along the beautiful pathways to see Aideen’s Grave the historic 2500 BC dolmen. He enjoyed a wonderful recital of Samuel Ferguson’s Cromlech of Howth (1861 1) from Howth local, Shane O’Doherty. We are so lucky to have this on our doorstep.
