Did I really buy a 4 wheel truck to go up and down the Mountains searching for hidden family cemeteries?

No. But sure does come in handy!

This is a very enigmatic monument and archaeologists suggest that the massive capstone sloped backward from the 2 metre high portal (entry) stones and rested on one or more back stones. There is a difficulty with this interpretation as outward-facing or transverse portal stones are not common in Ireland but do occur in other countries.
The tomb was modified and used as an animal shelter in the late 19th and early 20th century.

And a quick before diving into the work queues. This is the local which just happens to have 2 amazing hills I use for cardio on my walks. This is one of the newer sections, but the view from the top of the hill is amazing—especially in the fall.

This photo is taken at Springbanks cemetery. It is heavily edited as I wanted to bring out the colours. It may have been a grave decision... I decided to get low to the ground to add a different perspective on the shot, I also brought out the lettering as it had a sort of gothic look to it.

Bóithrín na Marbh — a little road of the dead.

Headstones displaced in the early 1980s, line a small lane next to Athlone's Abbey Graveyard, Westmeath.
