Description

Amazing film of all the goings-on at Ballyclare Fair.

Warning: Some shots may cause dizziness! Fairground rides, horse sales. Charlie Witherspoon on the whirligig. Get some yellowman or a wee white mouse. This was a week-long fair.

This year, there was controversy over the council’s intent to charge stallholders. James Miskelly of the Market Traders’ Association discusses the £5 charge. Sidney Cameron from the Council insists the charge will be levied.

Cameraman: Sean McGaffin. Sound: Jimmy McGirr.
