Another fascinating oral history from local Kilkeel lady, Rose Crawford (nee Quinn). Rose grew up on a farm and the family also had a large flax mill. Times have indeed changed. Thankfully Rose has great memories of those days and gives a lovely glimpse of the past.

    No good bringing an OS Map and Compass if you don't know how to use them together to find where you are and the bearing to where you want to go.

    Thanks again for a brilliant day, it really was a pleasure to be up there helping and gave a real satisfaction to be able to give something back to the mountains. Your team do amazing work not just in the high Mournes but right across the whole area and it really is appreciated. Keep up the great work! 😀

    Does anyone know the history of the stone with the words: STOP. Look around and praise the name of him who made it all

      Hi - we'd recently posted about this on Facebook - the info is as follows: Nestled along the River Walk is a giant boulder, an erratic, left by a glacier in its journey down the valley. Though it is likely to have travelled many miles, it found a unique spot, wedged in a rock cleft overlooking the Shimna river. The vast flat face is actually the result of the boulder being split by the power of ice ! When the area was cleared of trees, the third Earl of Clanbrassil instructed stone masons to inscribe a biblical quote from St John onto its face. Nature's history meets human craftmanship !

    Mr Kilgore, Alan, I am so happy to see your video. I was a pupil at Orangefield. I am turning 44 this week, and last year started writing a memoir, and I mention you in it. I had already at a young age when I first met you at Whinlands, discovered a love of birds, and it has stuck with me to this day, and is so much of the reason why I love the outdoors, and I remember that you inspired me even more, when you told me about hawks, and falcons and possibly even having seen an Osprey at Castlewellan (not sure if that is accurate, but that is my memory) I could listen to you all day. Many many thanks 🙏
