Shamrock is a
little bit different; it is a little bit of Ireland. Settled by Irish
immigrants, it has kept much of the flavor of those green isles. Blarney Stone In 1959, a little piece of rock was removed from the ruins of Blarney Castle in Ireland and given to the town of Shamrock. They encased it in a 'indestructible' concrete cylinder, painted it green (of course) and hoped for an influx of Irish and 'Irish would-be' visitors. From I-40 take exit 163. If you are eastbound, turn right; if westbound, turn left. Follow US-83 (Main Street) to Railroad Avenue (on the near side of the tracks) and turn left. Go 3 blocks and Elmore Park and their encased Blarney Stone will be on your left. Spending the night? Our favorite is the newer Best Western Shamrock Inn at exit 163. They have slightly higher rates than the Econo Lodge but they have an indoor pool, exercise room and modem jacks in each of the rooms (in case you are carrying a notebook computer). |
