Mining
At Carrowmore in County Galway, a disused gravel pit sits quietly in the landscape, the kind of place that rarely earns a second glance yet carries its own particular presence.
Gravel extraction, once commonplace across Ireland's glacial plains, has left behind thousands of such hollows, their working lives long over, their outlines slowly softening back into the surrounding terrain.
