Irish waterways scenery

I’m not going to attempt to provide a complete guide to Ireland’s inland waterways. Instead, this section features some of the things that have caught my attention or otherwise appealed to me:

• big skies

• light

• the resting-place of Uncle Arthur

• the Shannonbridge chimneys

• the Doonass bleach mill and Conway’s Canal

• oddities and amusements

• Irish waterways willies: the true origins of the round towers (perhaps)

• waterways furniture.
