Belturbet

The name describes the ground exactly: the neck of land between Lough Erne and the Woodford, which is why there has been a crossing here for as long as anyone has been moving through the drumlins. It sits four kilometres from the border, which has shaped it more than any of that.

• Magh Slécht · ‘The plain of prostrations’, where the idol Crom Cruach stood ringed by twelve others. Patrick is said to have felled it with his crozier from the next hill, and the twelve to have been swallowed by the earth. A decorated La Tène stone found at Killycluggin is the candidate for the idol itself.
• Clones · Tigernach’s 6th-century monastery. A round tower, a stone sarcophagus said to be the saint’s, and a five-metre high cross whose shaft was carved between 825 and 875 — the head added later, by other hands.

All of these are pinned on the Hidden Ireland map.
