Places & Things: On Location: Ireland: Monk's Fishing Hut
Monk's Fishing Hut, April, 2007
Cong, County Mayo, Ireland
The weathered stones of this hut, built over the Cong river was used by Monks as shelter for catching fish. Since the use of fishing rods was against their beliefs, the line was attached to a bell, which signaled a catch when it rang.
