Hey, does anyone know an aul one or wan who grew up near the Blessington Basin? I'm looking to interview someone about it for my radio thang, and I like to have a sort of oral history element to all of my segments.
I know historians can talk about it (I'm sure Pat Liddy would know bucketloads), but I would really rather have a local person walk around it and have a chat.
Other places I'm looking to do:
* Ranelagh Gardens
* Iveagh Gardens
* The South Wall (I think I can find people to help out with that one, though, since I live near it)
But really I'd like Blessington because I want it to be on the north side of the city.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
