For all potential customer this Tuesday morning - there’s a fairly substantial web server disruption at the moment, so if our website is going slowly - or if your Revolut isn’t working - or if Lloyds isn’t logging on - that’s why.

Thanks to the kind person who flagged it up!

No doubt some *very* highly paid teenagers are working *very* hard in air-conditioned rooms somewhere, fixing it as quickly as possible…

*This is a Souterrain. Souterrains are underground galleries and, in their early stages, were always associated with a settlement. The galleries were dug out and then lined with stone slabs or wood before being reburied. They do not appear to have been used for burial or ritual purposes and it has been suggested that they were food stores or hiding places during times of strife, although some of them would have had very obvious entrances. The distribution of souterrains is very uneven in Ireland, with the greatest concentrations occurring in north Louth, north Antrim, south Galway, and west Cork and Kerry. There is one in Gort!

We have one of these beautiful books in stock ✨

This book takes readers on a visual journey of discovery through the Burren on Ireland’s windswept Atlantic coast. This striking glaciokarst terrain of limestone smoothed by ice and sculpted by rain supports diverse fauna and flora, as well as a rich geological and cultural heritage. The book shows how rainwater shapes limestone pavements and caves that feed holy wells and lakes, and how the rock provides microclimates for archaic ferns and colourful orchids. It also reveals how communities used the stone beneath their feet to build megalithic tombs, cashels, tower houses, churches, and drystone walls in this compelling Land of Limestone.
