Ruin at Drombeg

Ruined building adjacent to the cottage Lisi and I rented at Drombeg, near Ardgroom, Co. Cork.

An Interesting House in Lincolnshire


In September, en-route to Ireland, Lisi and I 'house-sat' this beautiful house, home to Lisi's sister and brother-in-law for many years, while they went on holiday.  The original house is Elizabethan but has been considerably added to and altered through the intervening years between the raising of the original building and now.

On The Healy Pass


The Healy Pass is named after Tim Healy, first Governor General of the Irish Free State.  This scenically magnificent road runs over the mountainous spine of the Beara Peninsular.  This Bridge spans a stream on the steeper northern, scarp face of the crossing.
