These trees, planted as shelter for this now abandoned house, form a conspicuous feature in the landscape. Camlough Mountain, Sturgan Mountain and Slieve Gullion form the background. During The Troubles the summits of these hills were used by the BA as the sites of permanent observation points. http://cain.ulst.ac.uk/images/photos/coarmagh/camlough/sturgan4.htm
