JOURNALISTS IN RESIDENCE!

On Tuesday we had a visit from two of our more famous historical journalists – Liam Kenny who writes a weekly column ‘Nothing New Under the Sun’, for The Leinster Leader and contributes all these articles to EHistory and Frank Taaffe who has been writing his ‘Eye on the PAst’ column for the Athy page of the Kildare Nationalist now for many years and has recently committed many of these articles to the web – Athy on the Past blogspot

Both of course are well known in Co. Kildare Local History circles and are involved in the Naas and Athy Local History Groups and the Co. Kildare National Monuments Advisory Committee (Frank Taaffe is the Chairman).
