A special visit today as Fergus from the lighthouse team welcomed TV legend Timmy Mallett to Blacksod Lighthouse. Timmy’s mother Nancy worked on D-Day weather forecasts & spoke to Maureen Sweeney on June 4, 1944, confirming Blacksod’s vital role in the Normandy landings

It is an amazing structure of Irelands southwestern coast.

While Davitt is rightly revered for his land activism in Ireland, it is also important to remember how much of an internationalist he was. An example of this was when he travelled to Kishinev, Moldova in 1903 to highlight a massacre of Jewish people there. #davittmuseum
