Raheny Village (Part 5)

This is the fifth part of Lorcan Film Unit (also know as the Crowe family) piece of Raheny Village.

In this piece Leslie starts at the rockery and Watermill Lane and Bull Island. We then go to St Anne's Park and see the park the way it was.

Once again firefighter and historian by all accounts Mr Leslie Crowe has captured some great footage of the Village of Raheny. With the music accompaniment from Leslie's son Noel we are once again transported to a different time and place.

We would like to add a special acknowledgement to Kate, who is now providing the closed captions to her grandfathers work. It's great to see that some one who was born 20 years after her grandfathers passing is able to keep the family involvement that has always been the corner stone of Leslie Crowe's Lorcan Film Unit alive.

There is more of this to come and it is great to see that this is being passed on to anyone that is interested around the world. So if you know any of the people in the videos please email. Hope you enjoy

Tallaghtsaysno to Topaz

Thatched cottage in Raheny Dublin

... in the closing years of the
last [19th] century it was one of
a group of nine. At the time a
local landlord decided to
demolish all of these, but a
family by the name of Cronin
who lived in this remaining
one, approached Parnell for
advice. He told them to take
the matter to court where they
rceived a judgment in their
favour, and the cottage was
allowed to stand.
