Can somebody point me in the right direction in Leinster

To whom it may concern,

I have lived most of my life in Cork - both City and North of the county. In that time I have enjoyed many an autumnal day at a fort in Kinsale or at the foot of the Galtee mountains - where once they danced at the bushes - procuring medicine for the cold, dark winter months ahead and with it a gloom that taints my being at one and the same time.

Recently, I have moved to Dublin and though I have a general idea of where to begin my search - south and across the border into Wicklow and the familiarity of mountains, east towards hills and fields where neolithic peoples erected stone monuments aeons ago - I still can't quite work out "my" spots here. I don't want specific locations just placenames will do and from there instinct will kick in.

Go raibh míle math again,
