Programme 8
Bagenals Castle
Le blianta fada creideadh nach raibh fuílleach de chaisleán
ar bith ar fáil ar an Iúr
ach a mhalairt scéil a bhí ann nuair a thangthas ar Chaisleán
Uí Bheigléinn arís.
Nochtadh an foirgneamh agus Bacús Mhic Cana á dhíol
le húinéir nua. Cheannaigh
muintir Mhic Cana an suíomh i 1893 agus baineadh úsáid
as an chaisleán 16ú aois
agus an teach stóir taobh leis mar Bhacús Victeoiria. Is é
atá mar ábhar suntais ag an chaisleán gur foirgneamh
den bheagán é in Éirinn a bhfuil mionphleananna ag
maireachtáil dó. Téann na pleananna seo siar go dtí
1568 agus tá siad lonnaithe in Oifig na nAnnála Poiblí
i Londain. Thóg Nicolas Bagenal an caisleán nuair a fuair
sé teideal do thalamh agus do Mhainistir Chistéirseach an
Iúir i 1550.

Built in the sixteenth century, Newry’s oldest building amazingly
survived enveloped within the former McCann’s Bakery premises. Nicholas
Bagenal was granted the lands and rights of Newry's Cistercian Abbey in
1550. As well as major plans for the restoration and preservation of the
castle, Newry and Mourne District Council are hoping to relocate Newry and
Mourne Museum to the Castle.

Mill a h-Uile Rud
Ceoltóirí as iarthuaisceart na Stat Aontaithe nach bhfuil
saol na coitiantachta a chleachtadh acu ar chor ar bith. Conaíonn
siad i bpobal beag Punk ar ghabhaltas
cúig acra déag in aice le Seattle. Saol malartach ina mbaineann
siad leas as a gcuid ceoil mar ghléas cogaidh i streachailt pholaitiúil
agus shoisialaíoch – agus leis an dlaoi mhullaigh a chur
ar an teachtaireacht s’acu, is i nGaeilge na hAlban amháin
a cheolann siad!

Mill a h-Uile Rud are based a short distance outside Seattle,
Washington, on the West Coast of the United States. There they live an
unconventional lifestyle in a small
Punk community. A three piece band they use their music to voice their
frustration and dissatisfaction with the current political climate in
the world.
