Summary[edit]

Description

A meeting of waters... is Belleek, Co. Fermanagh

This beautiful scene with a stream joining a larger river just above a bridge makes a scene that many photographers would love to shoot today!

With thanks especially today to the keen eyes and memory of O Mac we have confirmation that this is the River Erne at Belleek on the Fermanagh/Donegal border. Sharon.corbet points out that the building to the left is the renowned Belleek Pottery works - completed per Niall McAuley in 1862. Niall also tells us that the river, bridge and waterfall look so different today because of drainage and other works completed in the 1880s....
