Eine deutsche Familie reiste kürzlich in den Südwesten Irlands, also genau in die Gegend, in der spielt.

In the small town of Schull, a stroll through the farmers' market. At Eve Chambers' stall they browsed through the plant-dyed yarns (much like Lucy in the novel). Turned out, they had read read my book. They would probably wonder how it is that I know about their wool buying

An old postcard (unfortunately undated) that lampooned the service provided by the to Tramway. The journey from Skibbereen to Schull, of just over 15 miles, with stops at stations along the way, took in the region of 80 minutes. The tramway operated between 1886 and 1947.

The twelve arch viaduct at Ballydehob was constructed as part of the Skibbereen to Schull tramway. This rare image of it in use was taken by W.A. Camwell and appeared in the Railway Magazine of May 1940.
