Horse and cart

This is a photo of a horse and cart outside my Grandad's family's cottage in Murrisk, near Westport, County Mayo in Ireland. The Grady family built the cottage in the early twentieth century at the foot of Croagh Patrick Mountain and dug a water main from the mountain spring to the cottage. The old part of the cottage is now a barn and a newer cottage was built as a replacement later in the twentieth century
