Many thanks for adding the film, my dad was born in Wexford in 1911 so very interesting to see how life was in Wexford at his time of life
You can see Eddie Macken in the background locking up the pub, just in case he might have to give out a free drink lol
WOW Fantastic to have video footage so old. Cheers.
Awful times, I'm so glad I live in these decades.
Priceless!
I see the traffic gridlock is still the same, thanks for posting, would like to see more nostalgia, 5 *****
Fascinating.
Excellent.
Eddie is a lovely guy, so were Conor and Bernard , it was my pleasure to know them, r.i.p. the 2 lads . Used to have late nite drinks there with Liam Maher , r.i.p. Liam as well. All great Wexford guys
The buildings are still there besides the white one where the woman is selling fish. that's the bank now but not sure if it's same structure, the end is looking out towards mackens pub and the bull ring through the gates of the market.
