Old Photos of Bearna-Na Forbacha 2

Another great picture of old Bearna, this time looking south from where West Coast Vets is now on the Ann Gibbons Road (between Thornberry and the Twelve Pins Road).

It was probably taken in the early 70s, and Cathy tells us that the thatched cottage belonged to Mary Molloy (aka ‘Mary Truskey’). The shed to the right was Bartley Folan's and Peter and Kay Browne’s house can be seen above that with flat roof.

The white house on the far left was McDermott’s, and is located on the parallel Twelve pins Road, as it’s known locally!

Thanks Cathy for sending it on.
