Eamonn Mac Thomais - Dublin, A Personal View - The Liberties Part 3

Eamonn Mac Thomais, with the help of RTÉ, made a series of these programmes in the late 1970s. These programmes show some less well known spots in Dublin. Some that are no longer around today.

My Grandad lived, grew up on the Ross Road throughout the 1940s and 50s with his brothers and sisters. His mother, Mary Ellen was neighbours with the Daltons (Moggy Dalton) and the Carricks. Fascinating.

the view of patricks cathedral is just deadly buzz. Hasn't really changed that much. When I watch these programmes of Dublin, always with beautiful sunshine, I ask myself; "was Ireland warmer in the 70's and 80's?

82 and 83 were gorgeous summers.
