Joe Mahon travels the length and breadth of the country in order to discover some of the most overlooked, yet beautiful and interesting, nooks and crannies of the Irish countryside.
In this episode, Joe visits one of the lesser known Glens of Antrim, Glenshesk. He tours a ruined friary that was built by one clan, but houses the remains of their usurpers. He discovers a local ghost story there, before paying a visit to a hill-farm where he feeds some Bronze Age sheep on a hill-farm and peruses some unique snapshots of daily life in early 20th century Glenshesk. He also goes on the hunt for an elusive native species, the red squirrel, and explores one of the oldest woodlands in the country.
