Ep 46---
In a recent episode of Voices of Boyle, I had the pleasure of chatting with Mary Lavin, a tour guide and receptionist at King House. We explored the fascinating history and charm of this remarkable landmark.
Mary talked about the history of King House, from its beginnings in the 1730s as the King family’s grand home, to its time as a military barracks, and now as a cultural heritage center. She also discussed the huge restoration efforts, including removing 26 loads of debris, and shared interesting tales of bravery and historic events.
We then touched on the treasures within King House, including the Mary McAlese collection, Maureen O’Sullivan artifacts, and the Boyle Civic Arts Collection.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the rich history and culture of Boyle.
