Church Street, Listowel in Summer 2018




Lots of painting and preparations for new tenants going on here.




The Harp and Lion, one of Listowel's most iconic buildings. What a pity the lovely artistry of the sign is covered over.

Meeting a Hero

We see Jimmy Deenihan on the streets of Listowel every day so we don't regard him as a celebrity but when this lady ran into him in the Small Square recently she became a bit star struck. If you know her, tell her her photo is here. I forgot to give her my card.

It felt so cosmopolitan to have artists and art at every hand's turn in Listowel.
