Thanks for refreshing my memory bank- great to see Spiddal Hill mentioned- my parents called it "Seatown West". I would have been 15 when this was made. I'm blown away by all the memories. I had a crazy dream about Swords House last night , which made me go searching for information on it. It was a great place in the 80's all the same.
Absolutely brilliant video and information from Swords where I grew up in the early 80's. My memories of early 80's are faint as I was so young, so to see and learn this information is brilliant.
And they closed the Lords Mayor down a year or so ago I just found out! That pub was close to 300 yrs old! I’ve always loved Swords, it’s such a beautiful town.
Terrific! :) . Some of my happiest memories are of growing up in Longlands, Swords from the mid sixties to 1974 when I was 11 years old. I was searching the internet for photos from that period and found this! :). Any links to photos of that era anyone can share would be very much appreciated.
Great accurate history of Swords . Well done , it brings me back to my youth . ⚔️

Brilliant! My parents moved to Swords when it was just a country village - how times have changed

I am so glad I found this video but howcome it cut off :/
I never knew that Dublin Bus is there in 1985. I thought it made in 1987
Video could have been made in 1986 - not later.
@@bernadettemarks6785 That bus is operated by CIÉ, which became Dublin bus in 1987. They both used the same livery
Love to see Rivervalley
Well screwed up by Mr & Mrs Celtic Tiger and greedy developers. Just like the rest of our once nice suburban villages.
