Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Very interesting. Was shown around by a great tour guide. The restored blacksmith forge is a credit to those involved. Well worth a visit!

This is a small museum devoted to the local history of Claregalway, a small village which has become a suburb of Galway and a major crossroads. It has displays of tools used by local artisans and citizens--planes, cooking utensils, turf-cutters etc.--and local news clippings about the rising and the Civil War. A small village museum. There is also a blacksmith shop/forge used by a local citizen till I think the 1990s.
