Valentia Island, also spelled Valencia Island, is one of Ireland's westernmost points, lying off the southwest coast of Kerry. Since it first opened in 1816, stone from the Valentia Slate Quarry has been sought after for its durability and its beautiful purple hue. Its high quality is of world-renown and it graces such
historical places as the Houses of Parliament in Westminster and St Paul's
Cathedral.
