River Shannon
Dividing Ireland almost in two and dominating the midlands landscape,
the River Shannon has acted as a formidable barrier to movement from
East to West while providing a marine highway from North to South. It is the longest river in both Ireland and Britain,
and has influenced the military, social and economic history of Ireland since the beginning of time. Travelling over 200 miles from its source to the sea, it is home to over a dozen lakes and more then a hundred islands. It is joined on its journey by dozens of smaller rivers and streams some of which are also navigable. The River Shannon is now the backbone of a vast network of inland waterways.
