Excellent. Thank you from El Cajon, CA. I am a retired livestock farmer with ancestors having lived their life in this type-place at that time. Cows Rule! Stay safe.
It's worth looking up drone footage of An Graínan Aileach. Matthew Kelly is good. I live nearby and it's an amazing place to be in. The well there though is slightly to its south. It also has a lingam stone outside to the north. You can see a full 40 miles from the top of the Fort most of the way round. Right over to Errigal mountain in the west and Omagh to the south. Derry is barely 4 miles away but out of sight due to a low hill. You do see the Sperrin mountains halfway to Belfast. Malin Head to the north is also hidden by the Inishowen mountains but the view up Lough Swilly to the North Atlantic is something else. Pardon my enthusiasm, I'm just trying to make sense of the lie of the land for you. 40 miles is a lot to us here, not having the enormous plains you have in parts of America.
Thanks. My mum's mum came from Cashel. Need to see Tipperary sometime, and these days cough91 restrictions are gone between England and Ireland so I will go. "And we're all off the Dublin in the green, in the green, where the helmets glisten in the Sun, ..." as my Irish mother used to sing.
Thanks for doing this. I know Graínan well as I live nearby. I saw Staigue a couple of decades ago too. The 3 sites are in very different settings and fascinating to compare.
A lot of work and hard labour went into the construction of these structures how co.e their not presserved

Wow! Very impressive. Great drone shots too - it looks so well intact for the age of it.
Excellent. Very well done.
