Manorhamilton

31mi/50km north of Carrick, in the northern part of Leitrim county, is Manorhamilton, where the N16 and R280 join at the meeting point of four fertile valleys, which combine with the step scarps and narrow glens of the limestone hills to form a landscape of great variety and beauty. In the little town can be seen a ruined baronial mansion built by Sir Frederick Hamilton in 1638.
