This Rte Guide cover from 1984 appeared on Twitter to mark Larry Gogan's move to RTE Gold. Can you name all the Radio 2 DJs? I can't.

Old Photo of Gurtinard House


This house which is now a guesthouse was once owned by the Armstrong family who ran the sweet factory by the river.

Patrick McCrea who is the grandson of the Armstrongs who lived here sent us this photo of the house and the following photo of his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Armstrong of Gurtinard House, Listowel.





This is an old postcard with the sweet factory on the right.
