The Rise and Demise of the Irish Creamery

The next talk of Celbridge Historical Society takes place on MONDAY, 2 DECEMBER 2024 at 7.30pm in Celbridge library.

Dr Proinnsias Breathnach, senior Lecturer Emeritus in the Department of Geography at Maynooth University, will talk about The rise and demise of the Irish Creamery.

The title refers to the fact that a phenomenon which spread rapidly in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, to become a central focus of life in much of rural Ireland, had disappeared virtually entirely from sight over the last 40 years.

Following the talk, festive refreshments will be served.
