In the garden of his home, Brendan Grimes began this recording by speaking about the older buildings in the town and visitors to Skerries over the centuries and he describes the building of the village from the profits of the schooner trade. The livelihoods of the people in earlier times were recalled and a fascinating account was provided by Brendan of the street names and their meanings.
