The oldest part of this structure, the five-storey tower with the small windows at the eastern end, dates from the late 15th century. The manor house, the rest of the building, was added on in the 1630s by Conor O'Brien. He went and got himself killed fighting Cromwell's troops in 1651.

Feral goats are an integral component of the ecosystems of the Burren limestone karst region in the West of Ireland where I live. The silhouettes feature different habitats in the area. My goat 'Ally' served as the 'model'. I made this for a T-shirt for a friend who takes care of my animals when I'm away but it has proved popular on Society6.

Dry stone walls are characteristic of upland areas of Britain and Ireland where rock outcrops naturally or large stones exist in quantity in the soil. They are especially abundant in the West of Ireland, particularly Connemara. They may also be found throughout the Mediterranean, including retaining walls used for terracing. Such constructions are common where large stones are plentiful (for example, in The Burren) or conditions are too harsh for hedges capable of retaining livestock to be grown as reliable field boundaries. Many thousands of miles of such walls exist, most of them centuries old.

The Poulnabrone Dolmen is one of the most recognized structures of Ancient Ireland. This monument of stone is over 5,000 years old. Imagine the number of people who have seen it over those years. When the pyramids were built, this Ancient Irish monument was over 2,000 years old!
