Six heritage sites presented as one brand, with the UNESCO status raised into the first heading.

What you see
The headline is a single line: "Sacred Spaces of Ritual, Kingship & Culture". The very next heading is UNESCO STATUS, which puts the credential at the top of the copy rather than somewhere further down.
Under Sites the navigation lists six places: Hill of Tara, Rock of Cashel, Navan Fort, Hill of Uisneach, Rathcroghan and Dún Ailinne. Resources gathers articles, videos, podcasts and books, filtered by BOOK / PODCAST / ARTICLE / VIDEO.
What to take from it
Six separate places are handled as one brand on one site. The pattern transfers directly to any group of locations that needs to be seen together — a region, an association, a network of branches.
Letting people filter the material by format is practical. Someone who wants to read, someone who wants to listen and someone doing background work before a visit all need a different thing, and the site is built on that assumption.
