Step into County Wicklow 100 years ago
We hope to evoke a sense of everyday life in County Wicklow during the year of the 1916 Rising. Weekly updates of newspaper snippets will be featured, showing local news stories, advertisements and events as presented in the two main County Wicklow newspapers of the day— The Wicklow People and The Wicklow News-Letter & Arklow Reporter. You may find these snippets sometimes quirky, often poignant and on occasion quite amusing!
