Wartime tales at Carrickfergus Castle

Visitors to Carrickfergus Castle in County Antrim will be able to hear wartime tales and stories from the two world wars throughout August. A variety of characters from the British and US ‘armies’ will display equipment and vehicles, as well as recall stories, on each Sunday throughout the month from 10.30am to 5pm. The full story is in the Carrick Times at www.carrickfergustimes.co.uk/lifestyle/entertainment/war-theme-at-carrick-castle-1-4093367.

I'll hopefully be visiting the castle with my boys at the end of next week, though sadly won't be able to make it on the Sunday - sounds a great event! For more on Carrick Castle see www.doeni.gov.uk/niea/places_to_visit_home/historic-monuments/carrick.htm
