The largest ever Viking necklace discovered in Ireland has been unearthed in North Clare.
Archaeologists at the dig at Glencurran Cave in The Burren National National Park have described the find as bizarre.
The necklace which is 1,150 years old is described as a stunning piece of jewellery and up to 12 times longer than any previous find.

The team leader of the dig said the necklace could have been the result of a trade with Vikings from Limerick and Gaelic chieftains in the Burren.
