I was asked by a visitor from mainland Europe as to why so much of the small land available on the island was wasted with the big stoned walls around them. Any ideas ?

They cleared the stone from the land to make it farmable so they needed to do something with it and the walls provide both a boundary and some shelter from the wind for small animals

It’s good to look at but really does waste a lot of land , especially the really small fields
Suppose so… but all the field is actually reclaimed I suppose

I often find people done things in the past for very good reasons and people nowadays are very dismissive of this.
It’s why the derby should be ran on a Wednesday.

Missus was on about going camping in Strandhill Sligo. Is there much to do there?
Loads to do and convenient to most of the North West, Sligo is a grand spot
