The Story of Co. Clare

Bounded by the Atlantic and the Shannon, Clare, An Clár, was the kingdom of Thomond, ruled by the O’Briens, descendants of the high king Brian Boru. Its limestone Burren shelters the ancient Poulnabrone dolmen, while the Cliffs of Moher mark the county’s wild western edge — a landscape as old as it is dramatic.
