FREE Guided Walks of Westport
Free guided walks of the historic planned town of Westport are conducted weekly, July-September, on Wednesdays at 11.00am starting at the Clock (top of Bridge Street).
Walks can also be arranged by appointment. Please telephone us (098 26852) or email heritagewestport@gmail.com.
Participants are taken on a journey back in time, to when the O'Malley clan ruled this area. We walk through the early parts of the town, exploring the development of Westport and aspects of its rich history - including the 1798 Rebellion and the subsequent hanging of the rebel Johnny Gibbons. We visit Holy Trinity church (opened in the 1870s) and the tree lined Georgian malls along the Carrowbeg river.
