about

This a fun instrumental piece that has an amusing side story. Clogháns are beehive shape dry stone huts found on the bottom of Dingle Peninsular in County Kerry. Apparently, some scholar discovered these overgrown huts and believed he had stumbled upon the lost ancient medieval city of Glenfahan - the greatest concentration of Clogháns found in Europe. The imagination ran wild, monks praying in isolation in their little huts, peace, tranquility and devotion. Unfortunately, it was later revealed they had been built in the 1920's and used for storing cooling milk, and later for housing pigs.
