My family was from Fore, they were farmers there in the 18th century. We visited Fore 1994, looking to see if anyone remembered them--alas, no luck. But we were enchanted by the place, it has a very magical feel to it and is an amazing place to visit.
On a fine summer's evening you cant beat spending time in Fore. A beautiful place..
Took me two years from this video, but I was fortunate enough to see this for myself- and I enjoyed that a great deal- I imagine I should do a video on the 7 wonders of friendship, and how those wonders came together to lead to that moment. Thanks for the videos Shane, and the friendship- back to organizing my photos, I was a trigger happy camera person apparently...
Great new postcard from Ireland Shane, for me to add to my collection from last year-thanks for telling the story of Fore, hope you are doing well! BBW
Thanks for making this very interesting and informative video SA. We really do learn a lot from your work. You are keeping yourself busy in Ireland this winter. All the best to you:)
Also one other thing, the tree that won't burn no longer exists. the tree that you have in your video is only one that grew in its place. the other tree has long since disappeared. Having said all that, it is a great video and it is a great place to come visit and see these wonders for yourself.
You are welcome Ladies,filmed this befor Xmas and only getting the time to edit now.
Thanks for watching.
All the best to ye too

Hi, nice video but there are a couple of errors in it. The lake from which the mill stream flows is not fr behind the hill that you point out but actually it's behind the hill that you are standing on at the start of the video. The water running uphill is a strange one because I was of the belief that it was the stream you pointed out that was the water in question but I since learned that the water which flows underground from lough lene to the mill actually flows upwards from the lake.
hehe Hi Ray thanks,wanted to boil the water too but the wood for the fire would'nt burn
