On this week's edition of “Stories From Cork and Beyond”, we conclude our two part programme on the Butter Road and the man who built it..
In it's hey day, the Cork Butter Market set the price of butter worldwide every morning at 11:30am, such was its importance.
However failing to keep in step with Worldwide changes in the industry, its demise wasnt far off.
Rachel Foley of “Ancestors from Ireland” attempts to find out what happened to roadbuilder John Murphy, but reckons he was far too clever to end up in debtors prison
And ...... We get a tour of the “Butter Market Museum”
So Join John Greene for “Stories from Cork and Beyond” this Sunday evening between 4:00/6:00pm on
