Catch line: Rare Dublin spire offcut in Sean Radley’s Millstreet on Radio Kerry on January 25
Taking literally millions of photographs of all that that has happened in Millstreet over the past 53 years. Founding and running the Millstreet Museum for 43 years. One of the three who set up the hugely active Millstreet Community Web site (www.millstreet.ie). These are all part of ‘Sean Radley’s Millstreet’ that will feature on the Saturday Supplement on Radio Kerry from 9 to 11am on Saturday January 25. It is already on podcast from its first broadcast in October 28 2023.
Described as ‘the heart and soul of Millstreet’, Radley has had a hand in every aspect of local life for more than 50 years – and guides programme presenter Frank Lewis to a variety of these.
90 year Eily Buckley’s positive attitude to life has her acting and looking like a 60 year old while telling the sad stories of Cromwell’s armies at Kilmeedy Castle.
At Drishane’s 600 year old buildings historian Liam Flynn tells how the castle and estate were bought for £450 when they were valued at £8,000.
The Millstreet Community Website is updated several time a day by its founder and web master Hannelie O’Connor, a native of South Africa, who has lived in Millstreet for 30 years.
Thomas Duggan tells of the eleven all weather and three indoor horse arenas, 1,500 permanent stables as well as a cross country trail that his family has developed in Millstreet.
At the Tranquility Garden in memory of Eileen O’Riordan at the Boeing Crossing on the River Blackwater Jerry Doody points to the footbridge that marks the way O’Sullivan Beare travelled from Beara to Breifine in 1603 – and Jerry sings the local anthem The Bould Thady Quill.
Principal Pol O Siodhchain tells the stories and experiences of 50 years of Millstreet Community School and pupils Maeve Casey on concertina and on tin whistles Evan O’Sullivan, Luke Hickey and Aoife Casey play traditional jigs.
Sean Radley tells the extraordinary stories in Millstreet Museum of De Valera’s 1916 military belt, offcuts from the Dublin spike and a wind up gramophone.
James O’Sullivan is the caretaker of Tubrid Holy Well where he tells of walking sticks left behind by people who say they were cured here.
Twelve volunteers, on average give half a day every week between Millstreet Museum, internet radio and the Millstreet website.
Sean Radley’s Millstreet will be broadcast on Radio Kerry’s Saturday Supplement from 9 to 11am on Saturday January 25 2025, live on 96 to 98fm, worldwide on www.radiokerry.ie and is already on podcast from ton the same site under podcasts/Saturday Supplement/October 28 2023.

Eily’s Report – 14th January
Dia is Mhuire díobh go léir a cáirde and welcome to my report.
And welcome to 2025 , a New Year full of plans and hopes and prayers to make it a good one. Le conamh Dé. God knows the Christmas period put us to the test, with snow and ice and all the things that falls victim to them. Blocked and impassable roads, abandoned cars and trees down from the weight of snow. Even our religion was affected like never before. When did we ever experience Masses being cancelled, moreover during the Festive Season. Funerals didn’t escape, with coffins of loved ones having to be transported by any means possible and our Parish Priest transported by jeep. But the elements didn’t stop the rather regal removal of Dan Joe O Connell, R.I.P. a horse lover all his life, it made waves to see four jet black steeds in high plumes lined up in our church yard to ferry his remains to his final resting place. Only goes to show that combined effort makes everything possible.
