If you’re unable to make it to one of my Tours in Carrickfergus, but would like to hear the story of this Town during the Second World War, I can always come to you!
I have created a 1-hour presentation that covers most of the content of my walking tour – without the walking!
The presentation can be in a venue convenient to you – subject to suitable audio-visual facilities, and being within reasonable travelling distance of Carrickfergus.
I can bring along many contemporary items, used on my walking tour, to create a display.
Feel free to get in touch with me to get the ball rolling.
Looking for something different to give to a loved one or friend at Christmas?
I’m offering Gift Vouchers for Private Guided Walking Tours of Carrickfergus, which can be used during 2021.
My Second World War themed Guided Walking Tour is the only one of its type in Northern Ireland. It looks at how one small town in Northern Ireland adapted to wartime conditions.
BACK IN TIME
We all have ancestors who experienced the impact of the Second World War on their lives. My Tour takes you back to that historic period through the eyes of those folk who lived, worked or were stationed in Carrickfergus between 1939 and 1945.
On the Tour you will discover how factories changed production to meet the needs of the War Effort; local people lived with rationing, air raid precautions and the blackout; overseas troops based themselves in and around the town in preparation for entering battlefields on North African and European soil; buildings were re-purposed to become military prisons, stores and accommodation; and how some of the remnants of that time are hidden in plain sight!
