Sheep roundup at Clifden Castle

Sheep roundup at Clifden Castle
We see here the back of this ruined castle which is in reality an old ruined Manor House.

See Pip for classic view.

You say and see it all David. We only wanted to see where the path led to and what the back of this castle was like when we stumbled over the sheep farmer and his dogs doing what they do best. Like you, we did stay and watch for a while. We say them bringing in the sheep from two fields away initially to this corner.

You know Steve, if we didn't go out and explore -especially on foot, we would never witness such interesting sights. Thanks for your interest too.

It was very interesting indeed George. We are very lucky in the British Isles to have this sort of history around an awful lot of corners. Your sheep-farmers round their sheep up from helicopters etc :)

Oh, I went to read the history of the castle, it's not really old as I thought, it's a copy and they left it ruin. A pity. A beautiful view anyway, and I love the sheeps. Cheers,Dany

Thanks Dany. Yes, there are quite a few follies (copies) around Britain too. They still look nice on the landscapes I think. Good that you share our own views of these passive gentle animals.
