Subject: RE: Sliobh Gallen Braes
It's Irish alright (though it wouldn't surprise me if Bruce turned up a Scottish antecednet!)

Slieve Gallen (spelling varies) is a mountain in the Sperrins range in County Tyrone in Northern Ireland.

There is also a quite different song called "Wild Slieve Gallion Braes" which, oddly enough, is about the Spanish American war of 1890 (?). Regards
