25th July 1937.  A fine day, with some hot sun in morning; but strong W.-N.W. wind.  Spent morning in dunes & sweeping edge of marsh behind dunes at Curracloe; in afternoon went, with Mr. O'Brien as guide, to the wooded glen of River Sow, just NW of Castlebridge, but everything in shelter still very wet, though plenty of insects out.

In evening worked edges of three kettle-holes near old church of Kilmacoe, N. of Curracloe.
