Ballyreagh Day

I have spent a wonderful day on the Ard Peninsula, specifically at the Maltings lay-by in the townland of Ballyreagh.

There were eleven of us. We managed to disassemble and remove a delapidated stone wall, or two-thirds of it, at least.

We had two trailers, which were used to take the stones from the lay-by to the yard at the Old Schoolhouse, about a mile along the peninsula.

One feature of this wall was a kind of "honesty" collection box, which was surprisingly well constructed and proved to be considerably stubborn to remove.

We packed up at about four-thirty.
