    Mary McAleese Boyne Valley Bridge

    Like I said, I'm a lover of buildings, bridges, architecture in general, and this bridge is a great standout landmark

    Lough key for me. Looks great in that photo and I have positive memories of it from a national school tour there.

    Lough Key Forest Park its the one I'd most likely go. Can't imagine taking a trip to see the bridge.

    Not disputing the choice or the logic but a landmark doesn't necessarily have to be a tourist destination.

    Would have gone for Lough Key in the last one


    It probably won’t win but Glencar is lovely and gets my vote

    Oh, that's a tough one :(

    Think I'll - by the tightest of margins - go for the waterfall.

    If i was an hour's drive away, that's the one I'd choose to go and see/spend time at.

    Vote Rock of Cashel

    I was undecided so had a quick look at both and stumbled across the The Devil's Chimney. Sure, Glencar isn't even the best waterfall in Leitrim...!

    Definitely Glencar in this round. It's a really nice waterfall and the surrounding area is lovely as well, even if the roads are terrible.

    Glencar Waterfall
    Closer to home so therefore know it better and prefer it.

    Glencar Waterfall some people love bridges, some love mountains- I love waterfalls. I took a lovely trip north-west some years ago and I remember a lovely day we spent there. There is a lovely walk, it is free and the site is wheelchair friendly. It is really beautiful there.

    Glencar waterfall - it’s not very high but it is very pretty. All the roads around it are lovely too.

    Lovely Leitrim, where I live, because I’m lovely.

    Just googled it and it is pretty. Not as impressive as Glencar though.

    Vote for the Rock of Cashel here.

    It sits beautifully on top of the town and is lovely to see at night. Also looks very nice when they light it up green for Patrick's day etc.

    Very tough bout.

    I'll go with the Rock of Cashel mainly because I used always see it coming round the bend when we were heading to my grandparents' hours, and it was never anything other than impressive. Went up to it a few years back and it's not juts a pretty face either. Great back story linking in with the Devil's Bit too.
