1996 Ballinrobe Heritage Day & Vintage Rally

From the summer of 1996, this is video show scenes from the Ballinrobe, Co. Mayo Heritage Day & Shell Run Vintage Car Rally.
The whole town dressed up & took part in what was a brilliant day, filled with music & dance, fun & laughter, devilment & craic.
If you are into vintage cars, there were some unique specimens on show here.

Fantastic memories of growing up in Ballinrobe and & tears shed at the people who have passed. Seeing alot of farming items that my grandfather used & remembering my grandmother making the churn in the morning.Mary Hogan Collum

[@kittycatcarla]

​@@splodge9 The shops are mostly closed and so are the pubs. I watched this and then walked around the town and made note in my head what was where. This video is great. I recognise a few in it and I've told them to watch it.
