Doon Historical Society is delighted to invite members and friends to join us for our Annual Summer Outing, which promises to be a fascinating and enjoyable day exploring some of the Mid-West’s most interesting historical and heritage sites.
We hope to depart Doon at approximately 8.00am on Wednesday the 12th of August for a day filled with history, learning and great company.
Our itinerary includes:
⚡ A guided tour of Ardnacrusha Power Station
⛪ A visit to St. Flannan’s Cathedral, Killaloe
🪦 A guided tour of Mount St. Lawrence Cemetery, Limerick
🍽 We’ll enjoy lunch together in the Lakeside Hotel, Killaloe, before stopping for our evening meal on the journey home in Hayes’s Bar & Restaurant, Cappamore.
Whether you’re a long-time member or simply enjoy discovering our local history and heritage, we’d love to have you join us for what promises to be another memorable day in great company.
Please note: As part of the guided tour of Ardnacrusha Power Station, visitors will be required to negotiate a flight of 86 steps during one section of the visit. While much of the site is accessible, this part of the tour may not be suitable for those with significant mobility difficulties. Visitors are also asked to wear sturdy footwear suitable for walking. All necessary safety equipment, including high-visibility jackets, safety helmets and safety glasses, will be provided on arrival.
🎟️ Places are limited to just 30 people, so we encourage you to book early to avoid disappointment.
