EDITORS COMMENTS
1169 AD: A Glimpse into the Past - Norman Castles on the River Slaney, Ferrycarrig, Wexford, Republic of Ireland This photograph transports us back in time to the year 1169 AD, as we gaze upon the majestic Norman castles that once stood proudly along the banks of the River Slaney in Ferrycarrig, Wexford, Republic of Ireland. The tranquil waters reflect the vibrant colours of this historic scene, offering a glimpse into a bygone era. The Norman invasion of Ireland began in 1169, led by Strongbow, the Earl of Pembroke, who was granted the lordship of Leinster by King Henry II of England. The Normans brought with them a distinct architectural style, which is evident in the intricately designed castles that still stand today. Ferrycarrig Castle, one of the most prominent structures in the image, was built around 1210 AD by the Anglo-Norman de Clare family. Its strategic location on the banks of the River Slaney made it an essential fortress for controlling trade and communication along the waterway. The castle's impressive towers and curtain walls are a testament to the military might of the Normans, while the surrounding landscape showcases the natural beauty of the Irish countryside. The photograph, taken by renowned landscape photographer John Hinde, captures the essence of this historical site with stunning clarity and colour. The vibrant greens of the rolling hills, the crystal-clear waters of the River Slaney, and the rich hues of the Norman castles create a postcard-perfect image that invites us to explore the fascinating history of this remarkable location. As we admire the Norman castles on the River Slaney, we are reminded of the rich cultural heritage that Ireland has to offer. This photograph is not only a beautiful work of art but also a window into the past, inviting us to imagine the lives of those who once called these castles home.
