Cloonacauneen Castle

Killeen Castle (Irish: Caisleán a' Chillín) is a 15th-century tower house in Killeen townland, near Castlegar, County Galway, on the western coast of Ireland. Originally built in 1493, the tower house and surrounding estate is historically associated with Blake family, one of the 14 tribes of Galway. A farmhouse was constructed abutting the western wall of the tower house during the 19th century, A large house was constructed on a hill to the north of the tower house, and with a gatehouse built on the N17 road. This large house (Killeen House) was burned down in 1922, together with many similar country houses of landed families, and subsequently demolished. The land and castle was later purchased by a farmer from Tuam who had been managing the estate. The castle was sold and passed through several owners in the late 20th century, being extended and converted into a private residence.

Greenpark Racecourse was a horse racing venue in Limerick, Ireland.

At the venue in 1979, Irish runner John Treacy won gold at the IAAF World Cross Country Championships and a stage of Pope John Paul II's visit to Ireland was held here.Due to flooding problems, increasing traffic congestion and a limited fixture list it was decided in the mid 1990s to find a new venue for horse racing in Limerick. A suitable location was identified at Greenmount near Patrickswell and the land was purchased in 1996. The course at Greenpark closed in 1999 after 130 years of racing. The last race meeting at the venue took place on Sunday 21 March 1999. The final ever horse race run at the Greenpark Racecourse was the Finucane Electrical I.N.H. Flat Race (a bumper) over two miles. It was won by the Arthur Moore trained 'Well Ridden' on his racecourse debut. This horse was owned by well known judge Frank Clarke and went on to win five further races in his career including the prestigious Arkle Perpetual Challenge Cup at Leopardstown.11 acres of the racecourse site were sold to the Irish Greyhound Board (IGB) in 2008 to build the new Limerick Greyhound Stadium which opened in October 2010. There have been numerous attempts to develop the site for residential purposes but none have been realised In June 2017 a plan for 26 houses was rejected by An Bord Pleanála. In 2019 the 116.5 acre site was sold to a group of local businessmen for €8m.
