County Clare - History



			As with all of the Counties, Clare has a colourful and varied history. We present some of that history here; local, national, modern and old. Included are some short essays written by local historians on specific times and events. Also both a glossary and a short guide to field monuments (standing stones, dolmens etc.) that can be found in the county.
