An extremely useful resource for travelers and explorers is the website of the [http://www.osi.ie/ 'Ordnance Survey Ireland'], who have a free (Republic of)Ireland-wide map, free to view online which goes into the minutest detail, just click into the little Ireland icon, it operates much like Google Maps. It shows all the maps one could need for traveling and also shows real-life aerial photography if you click in enough times. It also shows various archaeological or historic features such as castles, megalithic tombs, stone circles etc. in your area which you could have otherwise passed by and unfortunately missed.
Ireland is also extremely well signposted, under the EU national development plan, which led to the building of most major motorways, so in the absence of maps, most travellers can find their way as long as they want to go. Locals will usually be more than willign to give you good directions if you are unsure.
