    That’s a great view OP. It would do the mind and heart good to see from time to time.

    For anyone outside of Ireland, the non-colonial name of this place is Cill Orglan, meaning Orgla’s Church. You can read an interesting article about deciphering colonial place names in Ireland here: https://letslearnirish.com/articles/irish-placenames1/

    All our our place names were mangled into something else as part of the ban on our language during occupation. Today on road signs you can see both printed as you travel around the country.
