Castlebar, Ireland Summary

CASTLEBAR, although it’s the county town of Mayo, offers little reason to hang around. The tree-bordered green is attractive, and the main street has all the facilities you might need conveniently gathered together, but since the demise of the annual rock festival there seems to be little going on. Historically, it’s notable for a Franco-Irish victory in 1798, at which General Humbert’s army routed a stronger force commanded by General Lake – the event has gone down in history as the “Castlebar Races” because of the speed of the British retreat.
