Heritage Week 2026: Glenary Heritage Walk

The walk, led by Neil Dennehy, will examine the relationship between the landscape and traditional rural life, exploring local history, archaeology, biodiversity and the craftsmanship that shaped everyday life in the area. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how communities worked with locally available natural materials to build, farm and live sustainably.

We begin the walk at the carpark of Carey's Castle, about 4km from Clonmel off the Dungarvan road.

The event is part of Hands of Heritage 2026, Tipperary Museum of Hidden History's award-winning programme celebrating traditional skills and living heritage, funded by The Heritage Council through the Heritage Stewardship fund.
