Strong Wind !!!!!

by sandman 7 Sep 2015

Must have been either a strong wind or some one was looking for a pot of gold under the trig on this Cork farm.A farm road located at A (W39441 73617) will allow you access via the internal farm tracts to the summit area and this poor trig located close by.
