Pathé and Ireland


British Pathé produced a number of films relating to Ireland throughout the 20th century. Although they cannot provide us with a full view of the past (and are narrated by English newsreaders), they offer a facinating insight into the way people lived, worked, and leisured through political unrest. Shown below are a diverse range of videos relating to interesting sports and recreation. For more, watch a playlist of Irish related Pathé reels here.
