    The brown area on the satellite is marked as bog on the map.

    Bottom right(-ish) is "Clonbrock Desmene". Is that our old friends, the Dillons, and The Great Augusta ?
  • O Mac said:

    Niall McAuley John A. Coffey CASSIDY PHOTOGRAPHY I have some memory there were houses (is that the correct word?) very similar to this one built on farming land in early USA history? Perhaps by Irish settlers.
  • Robin Parkes said:
    It surely looks like a sod house. A grim way of life.
