The story

Coumfea (from Irish Coum Fia, meaning 'Coum of Deer' or 'Wild Coum') is a mountain and series of glacial valleys in County Waterford, Ireland. It is part of the Comeragh Mountains. Coumfea and Coumalocha combine to make one bowl shape hollow facing west towards Ballymacarbary and the Nire Valley. Coumtay facing towards the South and East backs onto Coumfea with only a narrow ridge between them.
