Thank you so much. I've watched 4 of your very informative videos back to back, being flat on my back 🙄 with sciatica and have really appreciated them.
Fascinating site and history. Thanks for the tour and the explanation. The history is indeed complex and incomplete, but you gave us a comprehensive overview, thanks .
These Tower houses, were they faced with anything like limewash or paint of some sort or were they always as we see them now with a stone face on them?
Good question. I think they were painted in someway. (About 10 years ago I did a tour of Trim and they said it was painted/coloured in some way. I was in the restored Grantstown castle in Tipperary last year and it is coloured (but I can't remember how.) I imagine they were painted in different ways, depending on available materials (and of course weather and other things would have an impact on them)

Looks great mate
THanks my friend! Always one of the first with a good comment :-)
I shall wait with baited breath due to a nasty cough for 47 hours.
Get better my friend. We are entering in bad cough time as the weather gets colder and the days get shorter. Take care of yourself
@@forasfeasa Will do. Thanks.
