A great new article!
Pick up a copy of Susan Marie Martin's new book, Dublin’s women street traders, 1882-1932
fourcourtspress.ie/books/202… – at Dublin City, Ireland
Why did Dublin authorities try to ban street trading in the 1920s? The move to ban women traders selling fruit, vegetables and fish at Dublin street markets was led by a group of 'substantial ratepayers', writes @smariem13 @UCC rte.ie/brainstorm/2025/0925/…
This talk by Paddy Waldron @pjmwaldron takes place tomorrow Saturday 16th at 3pm in the Teach Ceoil, #Kilrush, Co. Clare. #heritageweek2025 @ClareFM @clarelibrary @ClareChampion @wildatlanticway
