Hi all 👋🏻
Today I want to share with you a walk around the trail of “THE LOUGHNANEANE PARK SCULPTURE TRAIL” in ROSCOMMON” ~ Ireland 🇮🇪
It’s special as it shows us so much #history… and #Irish #fables.
With this post I’m joining in at the Wednesday Walk challenge and Make me Smile challenge. That are hosted by @tattoodjay and @elizacheng every week on Wednesday.
‼️Have a look: Here in the Wednesday Walk Community if you want to join in!… the community is run by @tattoodjay.
Look at his last Wednesdaywalk post here: “Wednesday Walk people”
It will tell you also the rules of joining at the Wednesday walk posts 😁 come join us!
Today’s selection will be of 15 PHOTOGRAPHS
Date: 27 May 2023.
The Photographs in this post are all taken with my iPhone 📱🤓
I will follow the time stamps on them. So it looks like you are experiencing my adventures on this #walk, to 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻 #discover everything what I saw, like the little #details seen through my eyes and observe with me the stunning #scenery, #sculptures, #woodcarving, trail. 😊
The following screenshot is the location of this trail on Google maps, see the yellow star ⭐️:
Zooming out a bit you see the following screenshot of Google maps:
It’s next to Roscommon itself.
If you want to know more about this trail it has a page on the following website: LOUGHNANEANE sculpture trail
“Where you find that the park is 14 acre large”
At the entrance of the park we find this sign that tells us a bit more about the trail and the figures /the sculptures…
It says:
”The Sculpture Trail serves as a reminder of the rich history and heritage of Loughnaneane Park culminating in an opportunity to sit in the Nature Chair.”
The Mythical Tapestry of Loughnaneane Park.
Going under the waters of Énloch (which once covered this park) provided a doorway to the fabled Irish Otherworldly, we hear from a mid-ninth century tale.
About;
Gaelic Kings and Norman Lords at Roscommon Castle.
This castle (which is in ruins and from the 13th century) I will show you in a separate post, as it does need its own post. Once you see it… you will understand why 😎😉 so stay tuned!
Let’s look around and start our walk for today 😊
Are you coming along?
Yes… great 👋🏻
We see the pond in the distance and even further the church of Roscommon.
As we want to see the wooden sculptures we find the first one, quite fast.
Here we see QUEEN MEAVE
This trail and park has a few walking routes… along trees that just got their leaves back. As when I visited it was spring.
Following along we see the next sculpture.
This is CÚ CUCHULAINN
It’s fascinating to see how well the face is carved and the expression on his face is brilliantly done 😎
Let’s walk further… we reach here THE NATURE CHAIR
Look at all the details, the #animals depicted. One can sit on this #chair and enjoy #nature all around 🥰
For the observant viewer… the ruins are in the background 😉
Let’s change the angle…
This is a large chair. I Love the wings spreading out into the #sky 😎
Ok ok… we have rested enough now.
Come let’s walk further, there is more to see 😁
We find another wooden sculpture.
This is AEDH O’CONOR THE REBEL OF CONNACHT
The grass around us is so #green… 💚 there are #swifts flying low over it to catch #insects in mid flight 😎
We see here FELIM O’CONOR KING OF CONNACHT
A little bit further away and when you look in the sky, left side where it is white, you see one of those swifts flying…
If you think what is Connacht after seeing it on these sculptures…
Connacht is a province in Ireland and the counties it covers are Galway, Leitrim, Mayo, Roscommon and Sligo.

…and here I say that’s all for today’s post my friends.
Join me next time for more #updates, #adventures, #stories and #photographs 😎👋🏻 and some CASTLE RUINS.
Even my own #artworks, once in a while, will come by” 🎨
Thank you so much for looking, and reading.

Those sculptures were so cool, and first reading about the historic connections about them made it extra special. True skills there… I had to share the close ups.

Beautiful Sculptures,I do love wood work. My second name is maeve after Queen maeve but spelt the Irish way. Meabhdh.
Love that nature chair as well and yes the grass is so green in Ireland, I do miss that over here xxxx
Me too, I made some wood sculptures my self. But that’s long ago.
These sculptures in Roscommon next to the castle ruins were so cool to see.
Oh wonderful… that’s precious.
I liked the nature chair.
Having lived in southern Spain for almost 8 years… I soooo appreciate the green here. And I can breath…
Back to 4 seasons.
I can imagine you miss it.
Have a great day 👋🏻😊

Very nice walk with these wood sculpture... The armchair is majestic. I can see myself eating in it, like a king! 😀
Enjoy your day.
Oh yes… just like that… a large throne… on an even larger table, with delicious food and drinks 🥃
The walk was lovely. I enjoyed it a lot.
Thank you so much @heroldius enjoy your Thursday too 👋🏻😊

This is a beautiful park well-kept with sculptures in memory of the foreleaders of the country.
The close-up view of the sculptures gives a view of the art's beauty a lot more. Diy you sit on the seat? 😃
I would have sat for a photograph.
This is beautiful, Jackie. !PIZZA
It is and it was wonderful to see such history about them. Love stories like that… even if most are fables.
But they do tell about the kings and lords from the area.
I wanted to show up close, as they were so well made and had such great expressions. Real artists made them.
No I didn’t as it felt like… in the open somehow. But I did admire the chair.
Thanks Joe, happy you came along. Next Wednesday I share the castle ruins you see in the background.
Enjoy the evening 👋🏻😊
!PIZZA
Great it will be interesting to see the ruined castle, I saw it in the background behind the chair plus you threw a hint at us 😉
Have a good night Jackie.
It was a special place, there was a feeling about it, I can’t describe but will try in the post.
Thank you kindly Joe 👋🏻😊 good night 😴
You are welcome Jackie, I will be looking forward to the post next week Wednesday. 🙂
My internet is very slow today, I have reached my cap, so just pushing till I buy again for July.
Thank you kindly Joe 😊
Awww that’s a shame… almost July though… not much longer. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
Night night 😴😴
Yes just about another 24 hours then I will buy another one.
Good morning and have a great day Jackie.
Beautiful pictures... thank you for taking us for a ride.
