A tight squeeze

If your remember of course you do, way back in December we went searching for a sweathouse and were defeated by rampant vegetation. Well, we got the phone call from Gerry that he had cleared it and found a mound with a hole. Did we want to come and look?  We contacted William and headed off to investigate. Gerry had done a brilliant job and it most definitely looks like the real thing - what's really interesting is it seems to have a separate thingy on the right hand side (see extra)- was this for a fire? Or possibly a pizza oven - you could sit in your sauna and have a pizza? The Irish are always way ahead of the game! The entrance was remarkably tight (see extra) - so that's why the lads brought you along noted Gerry!  It would have been a very tight squeeze in there but we reckoned that the chamber had been infilled somehow . We might have to contact the Leitrim Sweathouse Project  who know about this kind of thing.
 
Might work for the MM challenge- hard to get into and the stone is also pretty hard. 

William reckoned he's seen another - would be like to see it - yes please. (Bat, this is very near you).  This one is located in the scarily named Murdering glen! 

Makes a nice distraction from wells!
And some music I'm enjoying  - Alive!
