TEXT ON PICTURE:

MACROOM - MAGH-CROMTHA. THE SLOPING FIELD - In Old Irish writings Macroom in County Cork is called Maghcromtha, "the sloping field or plain", an appropriate name, for Macroom stands on a slope at the base of Sleveen Hill. Cromaghy, near Rosslea, in Fermanagh, is really the same name with the order of the root-words reversed. Macroom (population in 1926, 2,413) stands on the Sullane, a tributary of the River Lee, the scenery of the surrounding county being remarkably picturesque and varied. The noble pile of Macroom Castle is said to have been founded in the reign of King John.
