Great history tour - I was born in Ormond Road, a Nursing Home just beside All Hallows - my father played Bingo for years in "The Blind" & we lived on Grace Park Avenue 1959 - floods on river Tolka were in December 1954 & the football players from Bohemians Richmond road & the Iernes rescued us as the cúl de sac was completely swamped Thanks for all great info/ history
It’s great to see Drumcondra graveyrard. My parents & grandparents are all buried there. I haven’t been there this year because of the coronavirus & this was really good.
Really great video Paul, I have been living in Drumcondra for the last 15years and I am after learning so much from that video! Well done putting all your shots in!
@@antseanbheanbocht4993 Hi - the truthful answer is I do not know where to access them - I wish I did. I do know that Newstalk are making an archive of all programming that went out since the start (2002) and that they would most certainly be on that, but, as to when that gets done, you guess is as good as mine. When we started to plan them, we thought we might do 12 episodes - we ended up doing 83 !! I really loved doing them. If I hear anything further then I will let you know. Thanks for the contact
@@declancarty679 Thanks for the quick reply. I really enjoyed them myself. I sometimes watch the Eamon mac thomais ones here on youtube too, you might like them.

Where is st patricks school
There is a seminary next door to the church & churchyard. I think that’s the place you mean

As a child Drumcondra conjured up the image of a lost drunk man in a giant biscuit tin.
Ireland is full of history
❤chariots were in ireland.over 3000 yrs ago
two chariots wide? No Romans in Ireland, maybe 2 carts!
the Celts were using open fronted chariots long before the romans arrived in ireland
