Mining
At Moyleen in County Galway, a disused gravel pit sits quietly in the landscape, the kind of industrial remnant that rarely draws attention but marks a specific moment in how a locality once sourced its raw materials.
Gravel pits like this one were working features of rural Ireland for generations, supplying aggregate for road-making and construction before larger commercial operations rendered small local extractions obsolete.
