On the E slope of the Coppanagh Hills, in reclaimed pasture. Indicated on the 1st (1839) ed. OS map as a roughly square enclosure (dims. c. 33m N-S; c. 30m E-W) and shown on the 1900-01 revision of this map as a slightly more irregular shape, with the W side being longer than the E. On the later map furze are depicted in the interior and in the fields to the W and NW. A roughly square raised area (int. dims. 24m by 22m) enclosed by low wide earthen bank (Wth 6m; H 0.5m), dry fosse (Wth 2.5m; D 1.5m) and outer bank (Wth 6m; H 0.8m). (Barry 1977, 191).

Explorer Tom Coolroe House would post a selfie on social media claiming its walls are doing all the heavy lifting in this neighborhood’s aesthetic appeal. If it’s closed, admire the facade because it definitely thinks it deserves the applause.

Fiddaun BridgeBridge · 2.0 mi

Explorer Tom Fiddaun Bridge inspired a bad poem once that rhymed mud with blood, and it’s still trying to recover from the embarrassment of being so rustic. It carries the road over the Shruhnasillogue with zero flair but plenty of stubbornness. Stand back, squint, and appreciate its humble charm.
