View from Glengar
Taken from the top of the Ryan farm. The heavily wooded valley on the left is where the Carnahalla River runs from Glengar down to Carnahalla, near the low hill with the trees on it. The lower, flatter rise of ground beyond that is Carrigmore. Running left to right between those two hills (though you can't see it) is the road from Carnahalla, via Toomaline, to Doon. That should help you get your bearings.
You can see the western edge of the Galtee mountains and much of the big flat area before the hills in the distance is "The Mash" which used to flood every winter, before they sorted out the Mulcair. The big house near the foreground is O'Malley's which I believe was formerly the landlord's house. Possibly that of G. Hodges that I read about on your site. Certainly I know of no other "great house" in Glengar. The village of Doon itself is hidden behind the hill on the right.
Kindly sent by Pat Ryan, Glengar. |
