This page contains audio recordings of lectures, talks, tours and interviews taken by Seamus Murphy, a long standing member of the Old Carlow Society/Carlow Historical and Archaeological Society. The Society wishes to express its thanks to the Murphy family for making these recordings available.

Because of their age and the fact that these recordings were made on a portable cassette recorder listeners should be aware that the sound quality can be variable.
