    Bianconi's cars used to run from Limerick to Tipperary and there was a half-way house between at Landscape.
    It is still there and uses now as a stable. The Mulcair at Dromkeen is spanned by a bridge which was built or repaired in 1847. A stone at the end of this bridge has blood marks on it. They tell that turf men were roughly handled there one day by soldiers. One of the soldiers who lagged behind came on and the men were so enraged that they killed him and the blood stains are there still.
