Old Postcard courtesy of Jim Riding*. The pilgrim's path to the summit (on the east or "Murrisk" side) is clearly visible. Carramore strand and hill is just visible at the top left corner of this fine aerial view.

This picture, taken by Jim Riding*, shows the church on the summit of Croagh Patrick, with a fine view of Clare Island and the outer end of Clew Bay.

*Jim Riding visits Louisburgh and Roonagh every year. A keen sea angler, he is married to Clare, who is a daughter of Jimmy Gibbons of Leeds. Jimmy's father, Anthony, and mother, Bridie, were both born and reared in Roonagh. Many thanks to Jim for sending us this picture.
