Ger's Fruit and Veg brings memories back

Here's another entry for the Kilcullen 700 National Heritage Week Competition, this time from Ger's Fruit and Veg on Main Street, writes Brian Byrne.

On the theme of Past Times/Pastimes, there's plenty of memory stimulation, particularly the child's tea-set, the old valve radio and the Ferguson black and white TV, children's clothes patterns, the butter churn and more.

While much of the window is hidden by the outside vegetables display in daytime, it's worth a stroll back in the evening to get a real sense of life around the 1950s.

Heritage Week 2019 starts this weekend, and a number of businesses and organisations have signed up to provide a display for the competition, the prizes for which are sponsored by Bank of Ireland, Kilcullen.
