Description

Roving reporter Charlie Witherspoon takes his famous bicycle to Co Down for a walk around the dramatic remains of Dundrum Castle.

This report was shot for a series called 7 Degrees West, a kind of early forerunner of Lesser Spotted Ulster, which saw features on old traditions and off-the-beaten-track places. Although the complete programmes, which included studio material, have gone from the archives, a number of these filmed location shoots featuring Charlie on his bike have survived. Look out for others in the Digital Film Archive.
