The Priest’s Leap

You are here: Home » The Priest’s Leap
The amazing story of the Priest’s Leap is a reminder of a very different culture in Bantry area, and elsewhere.

We’ve compiled verses recounting the story by Bantry-born T.D. Sullivan (1824-1914).

Compiled and edited by Angela O’Donovan, Cathaoirleach, BHAS.
