Summary

Irish houses have a character and personality quite different from that found anywhere else. Quixotic, often whimsical and definitely quirky, they provide a sanctuary from the Irish climate, which is frequently grey, cold and damp. This work presents 15 examples of these traits, each one of them distinctive and yet sharing the same native spirit.
