Skellig Michael off the Kerry coast is to be one of 10 global heritage sites that will be bolstered from the effects of climate change in a National Geographic-led effort.
The Office of Public Works (OPW) and the National Monuments Service (NMS) said the globally recognised landmark, made famous through the
film saga, will join nine others in the Preserving Legacies: A Future for our Past project.
