Lissadell and Drumcliffe
-
Just north of Sligo is Drum-cliffe church, where WB Yeats is buried, and the visitors’ centre focuses on items and books relating to the poet. The area was a great inspiration to Yeats and he was a frequent visitor at the rather forbidding Lissadell House a few miles to the west. Lissadell was home to the Gore-Booth family, who were active in the fight for Irish freedom.
