Loughcrew Christmas
The snow lies on the landscape on north Meath, the home of the Loughcrew hills (Sliabh na Cailligh) and the cairns of the Cailleach. The main cairn, Cairn T (c.5,500 years old),overlooks the rolling landscape and stone walled fields,unique to this part of Meath. Robins are always associated with Christmas and are a common garden bird in Ireland and Holly is abundant in the forests, such as Deerpark, in Virginia, a short trip from these hills.
