Available for over a year

Ba mhúinteoir, sheandálaí agus ghrianghrafadóir í Mabel Colhoun, as Cathair Dhoire ó dhúchas ach d’fhág sí a lorg seandálaíochta ar leithinis Inis Eoghain. Gan í deirtear nach mbeadh an oiread ar eolas ag daoine faoin cheantar agus atá anois. Tugann Brian Lacey, seandálaí agus cara le Mabel turas d'Fhearghal Mag Uiginn timpeall ar thaispeántas faoi shaol Mabel atá á reachtáil faoi láthair i Múseum an Túir i nDoire. Tagann an pictiúr le caoinchead ó Mhúseum an Túir i nDoire. Mabel Colhoun was a teacher, archaeologist and photographer from Derry originally but she was a woman whose life’s work left its mark on the Inishowen Peninsula. It’s said that without her there wouldn’t be as much known about the area as is now. Brian Lacey, archaeologist and friend of Mabel’s gives Fearghal Mag Uiginn a tour around the exhibition focusing on Mabel’s life that’s currently showing in the Tower Museum in Derry.
