Join Pádraig Walsh for an informative walk through the life of one of his predecessors - Séamus Breathnach. Throughout his life, Seamus Breathnach was a prolific writer. He wrote of his own experiences, recorded much of the local traditions and folklore and he published stories and articles in a range of newspapers, periodicals and journals.
With a passion for the Irish language and local history he became deeply involved in the Nationalist Movement and Gaelic Revival. Pádraig shall impart a wealth of information and will also have a display of some original letters and photos.
No pre-booking required but limited to 30 people seated, so please arrive early if you are interested in attending - first come first served. The talk shall take place in the Gunpowder Magazine at Charles Fort.
