Description
Ballycastle, County Antrim, Northern Ireland
Fairhead is a 600 ft dolerite columned cliff face carved by the same volcanic forces that created the nearby ‘Giants Causeway’ over 60 million years ago. Fair head towers over the ‘Sea of Moyle’ made famous by the myth ‘The Children of Lir’. This tale states that 4 children were put under an evil spell that turned them into swans, they then spent 300 years floating these turbulent waters below this cliff, unable to come ashore until the spell was finally broken
Some ‘Game of Thrones’ TV series fans may instantly recognise this location, as it filmed alot for the grand finale of the series. This is where Jon Snow, one of the heroes, finally meet Daenerys & her dragons at Dragonstone ?
