Leprechaun Watch

Look for the Leprechaun

Located in a 'hide' in a fairy ring, in a remote part of County Tipperary, Ireland, an array of camera equipment is set to 'spy' on the 'little people'. The fairy ring is some 120 feet (40m) in diameter, with an average height of 9ft (3m). Set in the Glen of Cloongallon, in the townland of Ballyseanrath near Thurles in County Tipperary. The area has a reputation for supernatural beings of all types. Leprechaun, sheerie and pooka are all regarded as being particularly active in springtime. The 'watch' live from dawn (Irish time) on 16 March 2000 for 3 days.

Leprechaun

Tree spirits are said to protect the trees around the ring. The dolmen in the centre ring gives the landscape an otherworldly sense. The camera is concealed in a cavity in the trunk of an ancient oak. Circumstances point to a high degree of confidence in sightings.
