River Cong
in Cong, co. Mayo. Monks' fishing house on the Cong River
Ha! Thanks for this lovely reminder, Bill. I have some photos of the Monk Fishhouse and one from almost the same perspective. What contrasts in this little village. Here the ruins of Cong Abbey, and ‘just round the corner’ Ashford Castle.
Buon Santo Stefano Bill!Olga
ReplyDeleteI am sure there's a story here.
ReplyDeleteAwesome view!
ReplyDeleteA spirited current Bill
ReplyDeleteLooks cold out there.
ReplyDeleteSoutheast Asia has the Mekong, Africa has the Congo. Who knew that Ireland had the plain old Cong?

ReplyDeleteLooks quite chilly...

ReplyDeleteSo Irish (reminiscent of Ireland, for me)! Love it.
ReplyDeleteHow unusual to built the house right in the middle of the river. But at least he had a fireplace.
ReplyDeleteGreat shot Bill :-D
