CROSSKEYS 562
This is an art form that you simply just don't see any more. Thatching a roof
is a highly skilled job, but in the 19th century even the most humble homes
often boasted a neatly trimmed thatch. Sadly practically all of them have
long since vanished, but this lovely shot of a craftsman tending the roof
of the Crosskeys Bar near Toome - one of the finest examples in the area -
is a wonderful reminder of how things used to be. The year is unknown.
