Kilmallock - County Limerick
Kilmallock sprang up around the 7th century abbey of St Mocheal and was once the third largest town in Ireland. There is plenty to see here, including the 15th century tower house of King’s Castle, the nearby medieval stone mansion which was once the home of the prosperous town merchant, the 13th century Dominican Priory on the bank of the River Lubagh, and of course Bloom’s Gate which is the only surviving gate of the town’s early fortification.
