About this listen
Vast, windswept, and seemingly untouched—the landscape around the Sally Gap in Wicklow is a place where history appears to vanish into the heather and mist. With no houses and few traces of human settlement, this moorland feels like a true wilderness.
Yet, the story of this landscape is one forged by ancient forces, human ambition, and exploitation.
In this episode, I continue my journey down the Wicklow Military Road into what some have called one of Ireland’s last great wildernesses, uncovering a hidden history that stretches back thousands of years.
Written, Produced & Narrated by Fin Dwyer
