    the road is a marsh and the giant is supposed to be buried there.
    There is a huge stone over his grave.
    Further on there is a grave quite close to Coolkelure house. This formerly belonged to Shouldhams now it is the property of Lady Bandon.
    The avenue looks beautiful in summer and it is hedged with rhododendrons of every hue.
    It is a delightful walk on a summer's evening.
    It is surrounded by mountains in the North.
    It was selected as a site for a sanatorium some time ago, but on account of its being too far from any railway communication it was not built there. There are twelve houses a shop and a church in Coolkelure.
