Old Photos of Cork

Joe Healy shared a wonderful photo of a family festival at the Majorca Ballroom in Crosshaven in 1985. The ballroom closed a few years later.

Fast-forward to September 2005 when I was in Crosshaven and took a few photos of the building. It suffered fire damage in 2004 and was demolished in late 2005, so I was very lucky that it was still standing when I photographed it.

Also, a photo inside the Ballroom

@oldphotosofcork I've left Twitter and used to follow Joe Healy. It would be great if he joined Mastodon, if you know him, please ask him. Thx

@mollaghan I asked him if I could post his photos on my blog and he graciously said yes, but I'd love to see him migrate here too if he gets tired of Twitter.
