Screeb

Screeb (Irish: An Scríob, meaning 'furrowed land') is a small village in south-west Connemara, County Galway, Ireland.

Screeb was the site of one of the four smallest of Ireland's peat-burning power stations.

This station, along with identical plants at Gweedore, Milltown Malbay and Cahersiveen, was designed to be powered by hand-worked peat with a generation capacity of 5MW's.

[4] It was built by Thomas Fuge and was a former residence for the Berridge family, the local landlords in the 19th century.
