Bremore Castle Market to return as a monthly fixture
Bremore Castle Food & Craft Village is set to return as a monthly fixture,
starting on Sunday May 1 st when the gates will be open from 11am until 4pm.
Based on the grounds of the magnificent Bremore Castle at the heart of the
Balbriggan community in North County Dublin. The market brings together local
businesses & artists to showcase a variety of local produce, artisan food and
handmade crafts in an open-air family and pet friendly environment. The market will
be running on the first weekend of every month (subject to planning and permission),
and dates will be posted well in advance on all social media channels.
With work nearing completion on Bremore Castle restoration, it is also an opportunity
for the public to get a closer view of the incredible work that has been done on this
amazing structure.
Bremore Castle is a large tower house located in Balbriggan, County Dublin.
Estimated to have been built in the 14th century, the Norman Barnewalls family held
it from the time of construction till 1727, the year in which it was sold. However, the
first mention of this castle or its location was in reference to William Rosel De Brimor,
who held land in England and Ireland at the end of the 13th century. Its deterioration
began much before the sale, and by 1783, it was termed as “not many years ago
inhabited” by Austin Cooper, a prominent antiquarian of that time.
