OLD LIMERICK stories will be spun this September 20 for Culture Night as the old ghosts of Nicholas Street come to life and walk around once more.

A guided storytelling trail will feature tales of the city’s colourful past from King John’s Castle to the Fireplace site, including the chilling tale of ‘Drunken Thady and the Bishop’s Lady’ – a story of the vengeful wife of the Bishop of Limerick from long ago.

The event is free and family-friendly.

Those interested can meet at Katie Daly’s Bar at 4pm, 5pm, or 6pm to begin the guided story trail.
