Caves of Mid-West Ireland
The Society has long-standing links to caving in Ireland and has now published its fourth book on caves in that country, under the above title. This book contains detailed accounts and surveys of the caves of the four counties of Clare, Galway, Mayo and Roscommion along with discussions of their formation and hydrology.
The book was launched in November 2019 as part of the Society's Centenary celebrations both in Ireland, at the annual SUICRO Symposium, and in Bristol, at our Centenary Symposium.
Details of its price and availability can be found on our sales page.
For further information:
- Up to date details of cave access in the area are available from the Speleological Union of Ireland (SUI) website.
- The bibliography of published articles on the caves are searchable via our literature search page. This is in the process of being brought up to date; as an interim measure the draft updated text version of the bibliography for the four counties covered by the new book can be downloaded from here.
