Description

Charlles Witherspoon visits Armagh Museum, looks at corn dollies of all kinds and meets James Loughran from Ravensdale, Co Louth, who shows him how a horse panel works. The panel was used to take turf down from the bog. The panel is made from meadow reeds. Mr Loughran is the last craftsman able to create these panels.
