Ironing Stone, a triangular wishing stone shrouded in myth and legend, in the grounds of Kylemore Castle, Connemara, County Galway, Ireland. The stone is said to have been thrown here by mythological heroes Cu Chulainn and Fionn McCool. If a child stands with his back to the stone and throws 3 pebbles over it, its wish is said to come true. Kylemore Castle was built in the 19th century by Mitchell Henry and his wife Margaret. It became a Benedictine Abbey in 1920. Picture by Manuel Cohen
