Bill I’d love to speak to you too if you’re interested. We’re putting together a programme on the Blackwater for the RTÉ series Abhainn which takes a journey down Irelands rivers. If you’re interested in contributing you can send me an email at frances.mulraney2@rte.ie

It’s going to be a mixture of modern and old photos from along the river, and will include historical notes and observations on the villages, towns, big houses, castles, bridges, families etc, associated with the river. Its taken longer than I had expected to get it into print but hopefully it will be worth it in the end.

He also says he’s writing a book on his journey along the Blackwater and that Bill Power, of Fermoy and Mitchelstown, is also about to publish a book on the river. If I get details of either book when it’s published, I’ll add them here. bjg

Thank you for an extremely helpful and informative article!

I was wondering if it would be possible to pass my email address onto Jim O’Malley? I’m working on a project on the Blackwater and would love to include some stories from his travels last year!

Mise le meas,
Frances

If anything needs updating, I’d be glad if you’d let me know, as I’m on the far side of the country. And I’ll join in recommending Niall’s book: if there’s anyone who wants to buy a copy, leave a Comment and I’ll pass on the message to Niall. bjg
