- Adare - 1798A hundred yards within the main entrance gate to the Dunraven estate, a spot is marked by a stone bearing the date 1798 and surrounded by a small iron railing. In the olden days the main road from Limerick to Adare passed by this spot. Here grew a tree on which were hanged two Irish soldiers who took part in the rebellion of 1798. They are buried beneath this stone.(This story was obtained from Mr. Mulhooly (aged 60 years)Wood ranger, Dunraven estate. Jan 1935
