Description

Minister of Agriculture Harry West meets Erskine Childers, Irish Minister for Transport & Power at Aghalane Bridge, which spans Fermanagh and Cavan. They were there to pay tribute to the young volunteers of the International Voluntary Service who had worked hard to clear the Woodford River of debris and mess. They return from the river to have tea in the Bullock Cottage.  

This bridge, which spanned the Woodford River, was destroyed on 21 November 1972 by Ulster Loyalists during The Troubles.
