251 | Life to the Full – Eileen O’Driscoll – National Heritage Week

Eileen marks National Heritage Week with a tour of some of Ireland's most storied sites: the medieval cluster atop the Rock of Cashel, the ancient pilgrim path of St Declan's Way, and the lighthouse built on a rock with barely room to stand, out at Fastnet. She traces how that lighthouse became one of the tallest ever built on open sea, and what its keepers endured to keep it lit through Atlantic storms. Music from Rita Connolly and Sharon Shannon threads through the hour. L'articolo 251 | Life to the Full – Eileen O’Driscoll – National Heritage Week proviene da Radio Maria.
