Dave Mac's Cork History Matters
Friday, 14 October 2022 - 26 minutes
Anne Twomey of Shandon Area History Group tells Dave about the formation of the group, pays tribute to the woman who sparked her interest in history and indulges Dave’s curiosity about a range of aspects of Cork City’s history, joining him for a gentle discursive ramble through parts of Cork city – primarily around the Shandon area of Cork’s north side – all a prelude to their longer chat – a separate pod post – about the book and documentary ‘Ordinary Women in Extraordinary Times,’ which tells the story of five women – Nora and Sheila Wallace and Mary, Annie and Muriel MacSwiney - who played an important role in the revolutionary period in Cork.
