The Forge
“In every rural town and village in Ireland up to the 1980s you would find at least one forge.
I can still hear the ring of the hammer on the anvil during school hours as the local blacksmith plied his trade.”
An Cheárta
“I ngach baile beag faoin dtuath in Éirinn, suas go dtí na hochtaidí, bheadh teacht agat ar cheárta amháin ar a laghad. Is féidir liom fuaim an chasúir ar an inneoin a chloisint im’ intinn i gcónaí, mar a bhíodh le linn uaireanta scoile againn, agus an gabha ag obair leis.”
