SCENES from IRELAND
3.
The Doagh Famine Village Museum, Doagh Island (Isle),
Inishowen Peninsula, Donegal
Doagh Island is a quiet peninsular for wild flowers, sea breezes and
relaxing walking AND of course, the Doagh Island Famine ('folk') Museum
(below). The ruins of Carrickabraghey (Carrickabraghy) Castle are on the
left overlooking the sea (Atlantic ocean!).
The small solitary tower of that remains of Carrickabraghy Castle on Doagh Isle.
All the cars and coaches parked up for lots of visitors to the Doagh Island Famine Museum
Doagh Famine Village Museum: In the car park and sets the tone for great
few hours of history and craic as illustrated below!
Doagh Famine Village Museum: You get far more for your money than a cup of tea and
a slice of delicious brown bread at the Doagh Isle visitor centre.
Michael, the man with the 'manner' - for gifted 'hyper gab' - excellent
unbiased historical 'craic' on such diverse subjects as an Irish
wake, Presbyterian meeting house, an Orange hall, Mass rock, the
travelling community (Irish gypsies - the 'travellers'), Republican safe
houses, 'Old Ireland' in an 'uncommercialised' - interdenominational way
i.e. the history, food, cures and the rest of Irish life in an
entertaining humorous way.
Doagh Famine Village Museum: Examples of traditional buildings in the west of Ireland.
Doagh Famine Village Museum: The wake, complete with 'professional' wailer
on the right of the coffin.
Doagh Famine Village Museum: The eviction! If you couldn't pay the rent
you were evicted and the house boarded up. If you broke back into the
house, it was demolished. A great place to visit, thoroughly
entertaining and much history, some of it uncomfortable for either Irish
or English people, to learn and reflect on!
Looking inland from the north end of Doagh
Isle.
Nothing but the Atlantic Ocean to the west of
Doagh Island and a last view before heading back to the
Lough Swilly
Ferry at Buncrana.
