Ramelton: Georgian Port on the Lennon

Walk the compact, well-preserved streets of Ramelton, a Plantation-era planted town where Georgian merchants' houses, riverside grain warehouses and three historic churches still cluster along the tidal River Lennon. Once a busy trading port and a departure point for Famine-era emigrants, its quays and terraces remain among the finest surviving heritage streetscapes in County Donegal. Looking for things to do in Ramelton? Start here — no car, no ticket, no booking.
