Did You Know? According to legend, St Kevin founded his monastery
at Glendalough after being shown the spot by a goose. A murder in
the sleepy village of Barndarrig in east Wicklow in 1890 led to the
last hanging in Wexford gaol. The Little Book of Wicklow is a
compendium of fascinating, obscure, strange and entertaining facts
about County Wicklow, the last Irish county to be created and one
of the most beautiful, the 'Garden of Ireland'. From the stark
grandeur of the Wicklow Mountains to the fertile coastal plains,
this book takes the reader on a journey through the county and its
vibrant past. Here you will find out about Wicklow's castles and
great houses, its monastic heritage and heroic leaders. You will
also glimpse a darker side to Wicklow's past with a look at crime
and punishment and Wicklow's wicked women. A reliable reference
book and a quirky guide, this can be dipped into time and time
again to reveal something new about the people, the heritage and
the secrets of this ancient county.
