I hit Manners Town and Carrowreagh during the second part of the journey, which I will post as soon as I got the photos sorted. My wee camera is giving up and as a result the photos need some work. But you should see the faces of the people, when I ask them, what townland I am in. It seems that the first leg ended on the southern outskirts of Bunnamayne.

The Office of Public Works main priority is to keep this historic monument in good condition, walls have been taken down and rebuilt to ensure safety of the visitors so it can be enjoyed long in to the future. There are archeologists on site which im sure are well equipped to recognise stones which are of great historic importance so as far as I can see the Office of Public Works are doing a good job. I heard you recently on the radio and it led me to wonder what qualifies you to be able to tell them what they are doing is wrong?
