myPics: Lent

myPics: Lion, Westport House
This lion guards the entrance to Westport House, stately home of the Marquess of Sligo in Westport, Co. Mayo.
Founded on one of the residences of pirate chieftain Gráinne Ní Mháille (Grace O'Malley), the manor house was built under the auspices of her great-great grandson-in-law.
