A Walk to the Shannon Callows Clonown N.S.
We went for a walk to the Shannon callows in October. Cormac brought the
trundle wheel and he measured the distance to the river. It was 500 meters to
the gate into the Garbh Inch (the callows or river meadows). It was 500 more
meters to the riverbank.
When we got there we saw a type of “scum” on the fields. The river
had been in flood and when it went down it left this “scum”. We didn’t
know what it was. We took a photograph of the scum. We sent e-mail to Stephen
Heary, author of “Shannon Floodlands”. We sent him the photograph as an
email attachment.
