The Ovens Bar While travelling to Macroom some weeks ago, I spotted a plaque on the wall of the Ovens Bar and stopped to investigate.
This could be argued to be another case of ‘paper never refusing ink’ or even ‘stone never refusing engraving’.
So many unanswered questions:
- Why are the winners not recorded?
- What makes this game so noteworthy, and so much more important that all others, to warrant recording in stone?
- Why is this activity of the bishop more deserving of recognition that his other activities?
