Re: Maughanaclea by Anonymous on Saturday, 10 December 2022
My mother grew up in a farmhouse right by a group of ancient stones in Maughanaclea. From the map, it would appear there is more than one group of stones, but I don't know which one was near my mum's place. I have a picture of the house, if I knew how to send it I would. I don't know the official address of the property, having only seen it once when I was 11. I wanted to go up to the stones but my mum wouldn't let me. That would've been in 1967.
