Tonight, John (O’Donovan) offered to meet me in Croom and show me the way to my B&B in Grange. Then he took me to a poetry circle (a seisún perhaps?). It was so cool, I wish I wasn’t so exhausted! On the way to the pub, we stopped at the Grange stone circle. It’s the most awe-inspiring circle that I’ve seen! I stopped and prayed here on my way home!

It was too large for one photograph, so here’s three:

It’s located about 2.5 miles north of Bruff. There’s a car park just off the road.

I stayed at the Bridge House Farm run by Patricia Barry in Grange (near Bruff), Co. Limerick. I stayed in a single room with a sink, there is also a double room with a sink and a nice large family room with two twin beds and a double bed en suite. I had only had to pay £16.50. I still can’t believe that 1500 O’Donovans showed up for the Gathering.
