Guided tours to Seán Mac Diarmada’s house can be arranged in advanced through Kiltyclogher Heritage Centre.
We house an exhibition about the 1916 Proclamation signatory Seán MacDiarmada. The exhibition contains an audio-visual facility and interpretive panels, providing visitors with information about Seán MacDiarmada and the history of the locality.
Seán MacDiarmada’s family cottage is only a few kilometres outside the village in Corranmore.The cottage is a designated National Monument owned and maintained in its original condition by the Office of Public Works. It is of considerable historic importance as it is a fine example of a traditional Irish cottage and gives an insight into what life may have been like 100 years ago.

'Spread this cloth on Brigid's eve Collect the morning dew For the year this cloth will heal all that troubles you. It is considered the cure for headaches and sore throats.
