Charles Witherspoon climbs up out of Noon’s Hole to interview Patrick McConnell who knows the story of Dominic Noon, a Ribbonman, who was a revolutionary turned informer, murdered and tossed down the hole c. 1826.
Noon’s Hole lies about 5 km northwest of the centre of Boho, in the townland of Old Barr in the parish of Devenish, County Fermanagh. It is 81m deep and Noon's body was found at a depth of 190 feet (58 m) and retrieved. The body was then carried to a chapel for a wake but local people blocked the doorway preventing entrance. The murderers of Noon were never caught despite the offer of a £100 reward.
