The Curious Ear (2013): Ramble In

Like most places, Kerry had a tradition of 'rambling' houses. This was where neighbours would gather in one house on winter evenings for story-telling, card-playing, singing and music.  In the village of Glenflesk, the 'rambling house' is open twice a year and is in St. Agatha's Community Hall.  The programme is loose. There are bawdy stories, maudlin songs and lively dance tunes.  Muireann Ní Loingsigh visited the rambling house.  (First Broadcast 2013)
