A video stroll around Trim, Co.Meath

Trim. Yes, it is. Very trim indeed.

Prior to visiting Trim this week, my only impression was via various scenes from "Braveheart" (yes, that film was recorded in Trim castle.)

I was curious to see what it was like. Often, Irish towns are over-sold and then under-deliver.

Not Trim.

It was wonderful. A beautiful town, with a great location on the River Boyne.

Over the town, looms the largest Norman castle in Ireland. It is also surrounded by other historic monuments - Tara, an Augustinian abbey and a Tudor house (where the Duke of Wellington went to school).

Well done to the locals and Meath County Council for keeping the town in such good order.

Visit it. You won't be disappointed.

Trim is beautiful, interesting heritage and if you stay for 2 weeks you can go to a different pub every night. Lots of nice restaraunts and botiques. Trim is a must see. I liked it so much I moved there x
