About This Episode
Welcome to Episode 34 of the Voices Of Boyle
To end the year, we’re joined by Dennis Dodd, who’s a true Boyle local and knows the town inside out.
We chat with Dennis about the good old days in Boyle, especially the iconic pubs that hold so many great memories. Dennis will be talking about a range of topics from bustling fair days to the excitement of getting a microwave and colour TV for the first time in the pub back in the 60’s.
Get ready for tales of old fair days, courthouse happenings, and the lively pub scene of years gone by.
Join us for a look back at Boyle through the years, as told by the incredible Dennis Dodd.
Thanks to Brendan O’ Dowd for creating and recording the musical piece for the podcast.

I knew Fr Dodd well, who used to be rhe parish priest in Ilford,London. His family had a shop in Boyle. I called in there when I was younger and met his parents. Is it still there and is Fr Dodd still serving.
Are you referring to a Father Kieran Dodd? If so, he would have been an uncle of Dennis (as far as I know).
