Gorgeous photos. I especially like the second one, with the expressive sky.So the roof is stone and stands just based on gravity and the steep pitch? I have to assume they did not use mortar...I can't imagine repointing that!
You are right Kitty. Just stapled stones.
A remarkable and simple beauty that certainly has weathered well over time.
I like how one tombstone is lending a helping hand to the other. Seeing graveyards in disrepair always bothers me.
How beautiful! It's amazing how things built by man can last so long...
After spending time in Ireland, I noticed that the Irish do know how to pile one stone on top of another. Amazing stone building.
Lovely old little building. At times it wonders how they are still standing.
Such ingenuity, it does look rather "grave," though, it it's tone.
Because of some annoying messages I have to check the posts sent to my blog. No anonymous remarks, sorry for that.
