Immerse yourself in the rich tapestry of Sligo's vibrant history with our exquisite County Sligo Tartan. Located in the picturesque province of Connacht, it boasts a storied past dating back to its establishment as a county in 1585. This enchanting region, with its breathtaking landscapes, captivated the renowned poet William Butler Yeats, whose final resting place lies within its embrace. The name itself stems from the Irish word "Sligeach," which translates to "abounding in shells," a testament to the region's coastal beauty. Delving further into the annals of time, evidence of human presence here stretches back an astounding 10,000 years, showcasing its deep-rooted heritage. From its days as a Norman settlement, it played a pivotal role in military operations, its strategic significance echoing through the ages. During the Gaelic revival, this bustling town thrived as a prosperous trading port, exporting an array of goods including fish, wool, and timber. It held a unique distinction, being the sole medieval town under Gaelic Irish control in all of Ireland, flourishing under such noble stewardship.
