The Office of Public Works confirms that An Grianán of Aileach, County Donegal was closed on the 5th and 6th of December, 2023 for Health & Safety reasons.

The site was checked on the morning of the 5th December and due to weather conditions, including frost and ice at the entrance to the site, and in particular the fort steps, it was considered too dangerous to open.

The site was re-opened on the 7th of December, 2023 when it was deemed safe to do so.
