EDITORS COMMENTS
Granny Cairn or Graves - Townland of Craigarogan, Templepatrick, Co. Antrim (1854): A captivating watercolour drawing by James Moore that offers a glimpse into the past of Craigarogan, a townland in Templepatrick, County Antrim, Northern Ireland. The image, created in 1854, depicts a collection of ancient graves and a small, circular cairn, surrounded by lush greenery and dotted with wildflowers. The cairn, known locally as 'Granny Cairn,' is believed to have been used as a burial site for generations, with some reports suggesting that it dates back to the Bronze Age. The graves, with their weathered headstones and moss-covered surfaces, tell the stories of those who once lived and worked on the land. The artist, James Moore, masterfully captures the peaceful and serene atmosphere of the scene, with the sun casting a warm glow over the landscape. The delicate use of colour and the intricate details in the drawing transport us back in time, allowing us to connect with the history and traditions of this beautiful and historic place.
