The Clare Brigade of the IRA were very active about this time and the area to the north of here was a stronghold of their operations!

That is on the same road as I was suggesting above Lemur and I think we are probably both right as to the road but the exact spot is a lottery! I remember that the stone wall seemed to go on for miles along there and was connected with the bridge across the Shannon nearby!
"Group of women activists holding protest posters and an American flag, being directed by policemen, at an unidentified location" is mostly right
