A little history
Ardglass was a significant medieval port — the tower houses built by wealthy merchants to protect their goods are extraordinary, with more surviving medieval tower houses per square mile than anywhere in Ireland. The harbour is still a working fishing port.
The medieval tower houses are genuinely remarkable — Jordan's Castle is open to visit. The harbour for fresh fish. The golf course has spectacular coastal views. Ardglass is undervisited and all the better for it.
