PlacesKilderry and the moon-bog
Kilderry is the fictional Irish locality in The Moon-Bog, centered on Denys Barry’s ancestral castle, a nearby village and a marsh with an island ruin. Barry’s plan to drain the bog empties the village of its original inhabitants and leads to the disappearance of his replacement household. The story locates it in County Meath but supplies no reliable real-world site to visit.
