Hi Matt
Beryl gave me your site details and said you wanted info on how to find the Shiel farm in Ireland. It is very difficult to find. It is easier to find the graveyard at Wolfhill next to the Church that has the grave of Francis Shiel’s brother, John. The farm is about 5 kms from there.
Wolfhill is a small village in County Laois. It is about 20 kms south of Portlaois. You will need an Ordnance Survey map (No.61)
It is probably easiest to ask one of the old locals where the old Shiel farm at Crissard was. They are usually happy to direct you. If this helps, the coordinates of the farm are: 657259,685608. Hope you are enjoying Ireland again. Craig
Hey Carls and Matt,
I have made it to your website and love the idea that we can keep track of you on here!! The surf looks amazing and Matt the photos of you surfing are awesome.
I look forward to seeing where you get to on your travels.
Miss you

I really wish I wasn’t working in a -40 Albertan weather after looking at your traveling itinerary. Travel safe!
