In this episode Danny Houlihan travels out from his North Kerry base to explore the rich history of the famous Rattoo Round Tower Ballyduff Tralee, the monks that once chanted there, the abbey and its past. Danny visits Derryco grave yard with its connections with viking raids and moves in land to Dysert in Lixnaw where we hear of the saint and the legend. This again is just but a snapshot of our great history of the area. It should be noted there are many history papers written about Rattoo Round Tower and fine films made of the area well worth looking at. Danny will return again to Rattoo in another podcast to explore the area.
