CLARECASTLE CO CLARE





















Hi all,


I'm passing this on for our Clare Roots Society,

Crissouli



Eric Shaw had the included pages published in this year’s programme for the Clarecastle Regatta. He is trying to build up an archive of photos of previous regattas and general photos of the quay area of Clarecastle. If anyone has such photos, Eric would be delighted to see them.

Thanks

Clara
