Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The clump of beech trees on 'Flagpole Hill' in Dartrey Forest Dartrey Forest, formerly the estate of the Dawson family 897437, is now managed by Coillte for forestry. Their woodmen have continued to spare this lone clump while felling all the surrounding trees as shown here in 1989. The hill has been referred to as McMahon's castle, which long pre-dates the Dartrey name (the McMahon story: http://www.mcmahonsofmonaghan.org/the_mcmahon_story.html ). The unfelled trees to the right and beyond the clump stand on Black Island where there is the Dawson Temple 1499423 . Dartrey Forest also boasts of some fine old oak trees which, thanks to Coillte and the Dartrey Heritage Society, are being preserved http://www.briansdesign.com/oaks/
