Slate Quarry, Dohilla, Co. Kerry

Valentia Island, sitting off the Iveragh Peninsula in County Kerry, is perhaps best known as the eastern terminus of the first transatlantic telegraph cable, but the island has older industrial stories written into its landscape.

Among them is a slate quarry at Dohilla, a site that quietly documents the island's working past in stone.
