I went on a 'Sketch Crawl' led by Caroline Boyfield as part of the Skibbereen Arts Festival. I have not opened a sketchbook for months and don't often sketch 'plein air' so it was an interesting outing with a small group of people. Location here is behind Abbystrewery Church in Skibbereen.

An old postcard (unfortunately undated) that lampooned the service provided by the to Tramway. The journey from Skibbereen to Schull, of just over 15 miles, with stops at stations along the way, took in the region of 80 minutes. The tramway operated between 1886 and 1947.

Hot coffee, beautiful view, and good books from Skibbereen Library (such a welcoming librarian).

The Leaving of Ballymun
Air: Skibbereen

Oh father dear I often hear you speak of Dub, about
Its coffee smells, its Book of Kells, its billion pints of stout,
Its thanks and please, its fragrant breeze, its gossoons honey-tongued.
Then tell me Dad what was so bad, you left old Ballymun?

The rest of the words and the guitar chords (good ones, not the crap you see elsewhere!) can be found in "today's Willesden Herald". Link: willesdenherald.blogspot.com/2

The twelve arch viaduct at Ballydehob was constructed as part of the Skibbereen to Schull tramway. This rare image of it in use was taken by W.A. Camwell and appeared in the Railway Magazine of May 1940.

A shot of the interior of the old church at Creagh, located between Skibbereen and Baltimore in West Cork. It was built in 1810 and went out of use in the 1990s. This image was taken several years ago and sadly since then the building has deteriorated even further. Currently the windows are boarded up.

Happily local history journals are thriving in West Cork and beyond. The Cork list for 2022 includes journals from , , , , and the oldest of them all, the Journal of the Cork Historical & Archaeological Society. These journals are packed full of articles of local and national significance, and they make a great read over the Christmas break.
