"I've ta'en at oulart hollow"

I believe its Gaeilge but I'm really not well versed in such matters so please don't be offended by my ignorance.

The pronunciation I've heard on the recording is confusing in that it sounds like, "I've tammer too ter tallow", which looks nothing like the above spelling. Perhaps the transcriptions I've seen, of which the above is but one of many, are incorrect.


Thanks,

Mick

Major thanks.

"Scene of a famous battle during the 1798 Rebellion. Panoramic views from the top of Oulart Hill, where a series of commemorative stones have been installed, one in respect of each battle site which can be seen from this elevated location."

It's near Wessex, in Ireland!

Mick if you click on the view user link next to your handle you can send an email to me without the rest of the board seeing it.
