This stairway was cut into the quarry that supplied the stone to build Glenveagh Castle in Glenveagh National Park in County Donegal, Ireland. I made this photo on August 5, 2013. According to Heritage Ireland: "Some 16,540 hectares (40,873 acres) of mountains, lakes, glens and woods, with a herd of red deer. A Scottish style castle is surrounded by one of the finest gardens in Ireland, which contrast with the rugged surroundings."
More about Glenveagh may be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glenveagh_Castle and at https://www.nationalparks.ie/glenveagh/ (retrieved January 27, 2026).
