Local author gives talk about rediscovering ‘Legendary Leitrim’


The author is set to give a deep dive into Leitirm’s rich history through an exploration of its ritual sites, megalithic monuments and fairy haunts.
Ballinamore Library is hosting a talk on Saturday, August 15 entitled ‘Legendary Leitrim: an exploration of ritual sites, megalithic monuments and fairy haunts.’
The talk is being delivered by Alanna Moore, whose book of the same name launched last year.
Alanna’s research explores less trodden trackways through rural backwaters where ancient history shimmers close to the surface. She will introduce listeners at Ballinamore Library to almost-forgotten locations and help them understand the invisible dimensions of the landscape.
Alanna is the author of 11 books and worked as a professional geomancer in Australasia and Europe for over forty years. There will be an opportunity to chat to the author over refreshments and buy a copy of her book. The event will take place at Ballinamore Library from 11 am to 12:30 pm, and all are welcome to join.
