Listen back to episode 4 of our placenames series, ‘Where do you think you are?’ as we take a trip to Bohernanave in Thurles.

In this episode we’ll hear from placenames expert, Dr Pádraig Ó Cearbhaill, local men Paddy Loughnane and Andy Healy, and the stories from the Schools’ Collection (which were written down by children in the 1930s) will be ready by 9-year-old Muireann Ní Chathasaigh who attends Scoil Bhríde on Bohernanave.

The series is being broadcast every Monday as part of Tipp Today, with the support of Tipperary County Council’s Heritage Office and the Heritage Council.
