Old times Recalled Clounmacon August 2024

This is only a small sample of a night at Clounmacon Community Centre recalling everyday events in the countryside 50 years ago. Cutting turf, killing pig cutting and saving corn and much more. Sorry the principal man of the night John Lynch, was unable to record his voice, as he was recalling how he began recording local films and showing them at various venues locally. The spark that ignited him, was the traveling shows that went into every village and brought, drama and films to out of the way places
The event was recorded by another local man and he will have a more detailed video later.
