Hoping to visit this spring! My great-grandfather, Patrick McDonagh, and his father before him, James McDonagh, were carpenters for the O'Conor Don family and helped build this beautiful home.

Here's a wee story for ye,I used to stay in a village called londubh wester Ross ,I asked a local what it meant he said black swamp,the capital of England London means brown swamp,the word donn Connor reminds me of the mainly Catholic town of Derry Prefixed with London, pure Gaelic 🙂the brown swamp beside the oak grove,the bogsiders and colonists might be happy. Incidentally Pollewe was mainly a free Presbyterian village and all the auld yins were Gaelic speakers. Wonderful Irish heritage video and place of great culture, very interesting. Uabhasach Inteach agus breagha,gle mhath.

This film ends with a good poem by Kathleen Raine the English poet who was a co founder of The Temenos Institute, There is a strange connection between that Institute and this house, Both generations of the O Connor clan in this film are good people,,warm and generous hearted, The narration by Leo Enright is fine, Would he be any relation to the great English critic D J Enright ? Norris is just a poseur

[@peterbradshaw8018]

An ancestor of mine signed Charles I death warrant.

[@charleswalker1185]

Weren't all the perps executed?

[@conlaiarla]

That's nothing to boast of ... regicides are people to be shunned.

[@peterbradshaw8018]

@@conlaiarla When does stating a fact become boasting dummy.

[@gerrysona]

Pity a long connection with Gaelic Ireland is now in the hands of totally anglicised people.

[@fromireland8663]

How are they totally anglised?
