Lemanaghan

Lemanaghan Castle, Co. Offaly.

 

A drawing was made of this sheela in 1870 but both the drawing and the figure have gone missing.
A visit to this site today revealed that the Castle no longer exists but the other attractions are being conserved by The Heritage Service or whatever it is called today!
Some Early Christian carvings on St. Manchan’s Church but alas no sheela.

There is also a Well and an Oratory further along the track.
