AN ‘Historic Map of Kinsale’ produced by Cork County Council will give visitors a self-guided tour of the heritage sites in the popular tourist town.

The maps, prepared by artist Rhoda Cronin-Allanic, contain beautiful illustrations of the key sites and buildings, and a brief history of Kinsale. The Kinsale map will be launched on Tuesday March 13th at 11am in Kinsale Municipal Hall.

This is part of a Council-backed initiative to produce a series of maps for the eight historic towns in the West Cork region, including Bandon, Dunmanway, and Skibbereen. The Bantry map was unveiled last summer. It is envisaged that all maps will be ready by the end of 2018.
