Radio Beams – John Morgan tells us about Kilfenora.
The National School was right across the road and in 1959 the new school was built at the other end of the village. John thought it was a long way. The Burren Center was built on the grounds of the old school and was built in 1972.
John talks about the world famous band Kilfenora Band as the lived next door to him as child. This is biggest love.
