Book Synopsis

The historic town of Wexford has a rich and vibrant history, which is uniquely encapsulated in this selection of archive images taken from the John Scanlon Collection, curated by Dominic Kiernan and preserved by Paddy Donovan. A native of Wexford, the late John Scanlon was a prolific photographer who captured a period in Wexford's history, from the 1950s to the 1970s, when it was undergoing dramatic change. The snapshots recall old shops and streets, churches and institutions, the harbour and industry, and the people of this vibrant maritime town.
