Quarry, Ballinlawless, Co. Galway

In the townland of Ballinlawless in County Galway, there is a disused quarry that found its way into the historical record not because of any ancient significance, but precisely because of the absence of it.

Quarries of this kind are scattered across the Irish countryside, most of them quiet scars left by the extraction of stone for local building, road repair, or field drainage, and most of them unrecorded. This one was noted, if only to clarify what it is not.
