Mayo's Historic Ironwork project aims to uncover, document, and preserve the legacy of traditional ironwork throughout the region. 

Ironworking has been a vital aspect of County Mayo's history, contributing to local craftsmanship, architecture, and cultural heritage. Through this project, researchers and historians are identifying key sites and artefacts, including gates, railings, bridges, and decorative elements that reflect unique design patterns and techniques from past centuries. This preservation effort not only seeks to honour the artisans of the past but also to provide insights into the social and economic impacts of ironworking on County Mayo's communities.

Ultimately, County Mayo's Historic Ironwork project aspires to maintain these cultural treasures, ensuring that future generations can appreciate and learn from Mayo’s rich metalworking heritage.
