This project, funded by the Royal Irish Academy, and in partnership with Birr Castle and the Rosse family, aims to find the medieval Black Castle.
Geophysics play a big role in this non-invasive research to find the much older castle foundations under the earth, watch on for more details... Enjoy!
Birr Castle is just one of the many interesting local features here in County Offaly, Ireland. If you are thinking of joining our field schools here as a student of Archaeology/Anthropology or History, please visit our website iafs.ie for more details, maybe we will see you here soon!
