First visited Westport in the 70s and returned this Summer. Wow , what a change !! My mom was born and raised in what is now Matt Malloy's Pub. Have many relatives there. The McGing name is all over the town and surrounding areas. Before it was Matt Malloy's, the building belong to my uncle Dan . It was a small grocery store and pub for decades. Much has changed but, the people are still wonderful.
I courted a bonnie lass in London whose family came from the village of Fahy in the late 60's. I always treasured the memory of my visits to Westport. I'm back in Glasgow now. I mustn't tell the wife. 😅

It's lovely to see this. My mother, born in Westport in 1928, died two weeks ago, so I've been looking online for things that connect me to her past.

What a find. I came upon this video be accident. I met Father Gibbons while researching my family tree in Westport.
I used to play around that clock tower when it was being built. Even had my knee scratched on the sand around the base.

Charming video and music, thank you💕
And nary a cell phone or mask in sight:-)
Oh, the things people think they need!
Some place Westport was there 3 weeks ago hasnt changed......love it
The cars are newer!
Why would anyone give this a thumbs down?
They are jealous.
LOL! Westport is a wonderful town. I go there for at least a week every year, and spend the other 51 weeks in anticipation.
Probably "fish-heads" ;-)
Every UA-cam video gets some thumbs-down. I think some people just do it to provoke your question. :)

Love the four faced liar with no faces!
I think it's still there.
