My Home Town – Doonbeg

Radio Corca Baiscinn brings you a precious piece of archival documentary with a nostalgic visit to Doonbeg during the late 1960s as Aine McEvoy returns to the place of her childhood. Aine, formerly Aine Chambers, grew up in the area with the much respected Chambers family and returns to chat with residents about local history, legends, football and all things Doonbeg. Many thanks to Murt McInerney for providing the old cassette for RCBs James Flanagan, and to Aine’s niece Mary Egan, who enlightened us with a background to Aine’s connection with Doonbeg. Many thanks also to all the guests, most of whom are now deceased. Rest In Peace. Your words on cassette are a precious gift for us here now and for future generations.
