Derrynoose, Co. Armagh
E. Timoney learned about this pair of back-to-back alley from R. Mc Sharry and C. Savage. The land owner G. Renaghan explained that there were lead mines in this area and that the alleys were probably built as part of the mining complex. Photographed by E. Timoney, June 2019 Read More......
Poyntzpass, Co. Armagh
E. Timoney took these photos in June 2019, and with the help of R. Mc Sharry, C.Savage and H.
