Anyone know where I can get a pic of the Foundry from about the year 2000 ie just before it was demolished?

Thanks

Local papers of the time. Wexford Library will have them but I think you have to book in advance.

Nope 1986 to present are hard copies you can just go in and ask to see them any paper from 1985 back to the near beginning are digital and have to be booked in advance.

Actually if you contact the Library in Wexford & The Lock Out Committee they should have loads of stuff available as they have been working towards the lock-out comemorations the last 16 months.

Try contacting Davey Hynes (local Councillor, head of lock-out committee) at dhynes@indigo.ie
or check out the wexford borough council site at http://www.wexfordboroughcouncil.ie/CouncilMatters/ElectedMembers/ for his other contact details.

Susan Kelly works in the Library - susan.kelly@wexfordcoco.ie.
