When you are exploring Clonegal in all its splendour, the Weavers Cottage will make an interesting addition to your itinerary!

It is understood from historical sources that some of the finest examples of linen woven in Ireland in the 17th Century were woven in County Carlow.
The Durdin or The Weavers Cottages were built by Alexander Durdin in the late 17th century and were lived in by weavers when the trade was at its height.

The Weavers Cottages now feature many items, artefacts, furniture and pictures from bygone times. A group of spinners and weavers meet in the cottages regularly, lending further authenticity to these beautifully preserved cottages.
A little piece of history to discover as you wind your way around Mount Leinster Heritage Drive.

Open all year round Monday to Friday, 9am-5pm. Saturday and Sunday, 12pm-4pm.
Free admission, voluntary contributions welcome.
