macdonnels

Updated: May 16, 2025

Here is a fine castle the seat of the ancient family of the MacDonnels Earls of Antrim. Scarcely any thing in the world can be grander or more beautiful than the coast road all the way from Glenarm to the Giant's Causeway. It is altogether too fine to be described it should be painted, not written about. One of the grandest points in the scenery is the great promontory of Benmore, or Fairhead.
