Breathing Places

Anita Robinson - much loved broadcaster and columnist, is a lady of distinction; a lady who lunches and a lady who most certainly doesn't 'do nature.' Or does she?

The Oaks - magical, enchanted woodland.

Anita Robinson recently went back to a very special place that she had not visited in 50 years. A magical, enchanted woodland called The Oaks on the outskirts of Derry City in the townland of Ardmore. There she recalled a very different time as a child climbing trees, running through the river and visiting a very holy place in the heart of this secret wood.

Listen to Deirdre Donnelly's interview with Anita Robinson about The Oaks - broadcast in April 2009 on Your Place and Mine.
