A fascinating photography book on the history of Youghal will be launched on the night by Aileen Murray of the Youghal Socio-Economic Development Group. The book itself, by author Kieran Groeger, “explores the development of the walled town from its importance as a military base and port to its subsequent transformation into a seaside resort”.
The book contains over 200 images “recalling old shops and industries, schools and institutions, changing streetscapes and the characters that made the town”.
