In last nights Hear Me someone mentioned how much they liked the Niamh Parsons song Clohinne Winds. Noreen asked me if I knew where it was in Ireland. Needless to say I didn't. I know the song was written by Briege Murphy and mentions Clohinne Winds and Clohinne Hills. So far I have not been able to trace Clohinne although I was able to trace a Clougheen which is between Clonmel and Mitchelstown in Co.Tipperary. It is situated between the Galtee mountains and the Knockmealdown mountains, so the hilly bit is there. Could Clohinne be a typo for Clougheen or has anyone any better information.
