Most of the stone in the walls at Baille Ubhail comes from the fields. Iona and Jack collect it all, if not from their own bit then from a nearby christmas tree plantation. There is barely a stone pokes through the ground that its not snapped up. I have been here on and off for the past three years building things like this curve into the driveway. Another load of stone is ready so I am back to do a bit more. This is a good time of year to return because wild watercress, biolair, grows in a ditch nearby.
