The Old Stone Cottage
This stone cottage retains many authentic features typical of Irish homes in the 19th century, including a flagstone floor, a large open fireplace and ceiling beams made of bog oak. Nearby lies a restored sweat house - a small, beehive-shaped structure of stones that once served as a kind of sauna. A fire would have been lit inside, and locals suffering aches, pains or other ailments would have taken turns to sweat away their malady. Similar constructions can be found right across the north of the country.
