Duration: 01:40
St. Patrick's Day Ploughing
Ballycastle and District Horse Ploughing Society are holding their annual Horse Ploughing Match and Heavy Horse Show on St Patrick's
Day. Â Over the 130 year history, it intentionally hasn't changed much - and members want to make sure it stays that way!
Forging The Way In Fermanagh
Eight lucky people in Fermanagh will take part in a very unusual event this weekend as Sculptor and Artist Johnny Hamill demonstrates how
to smelt and make their very own swords - bronze age style.
Signing Off
In the townland of Aghyaran outside Killeter in Co Tyrone lays this rock - where over one hundred years ago, people carved their name before emigrating to America. Back then, it was unlikely they would ever return to their home place.
