| Message | Dear Mr. Blake,
Thank you for documenting these places before they are lost to us all. My family and I have been searching for a couple of sites important to us. I believe they are in ruins. The abbeys they once supported surely are dashed to bits.
One is Aghamilly Castle, Pobble O'Hea Co. Cork. Another is the former castle and great house of the MacMenamins in Strabane, Co. Tyrone. Further, the site of the fortress of Brian na Murtha O'Rourke. Finally, the castle that once was the stronghold of Cahir O'Dochertaigh in Inishowen, Co.Donegal.
Would you share any photos of these, or at least the GPS coordinates of these places?
Planning to buy one of your books for my boy for his birthday. He loves to look at the ruins of Timoleague Abbey and imagine how it was when my family interred their lost heroes there. |
