In Northern Ireland our ground is very undulating due to being formed by glacial action....We know the southern part of the country,Counties Armagh and Co.Down as a basket of eggs topography, because that is just how it looks. the galcial action formed short very steep hills where the ice met hard ground and had to go up over it then tailed off into a gradual slope.
