    On a cold and frosty morning I take a trip to Rathgall to see one of the most complete ringforts in Ireland. In this episode I'm going to talk about the Iron age and my hike around Ballycumber hill to see some of the coolest ringforts ever hidden on the windswept hillsides, journeying to the boggy uplands to an actual temperate rainforest, I'm not joking honest!
