‘My Townland, My Story’ is a project led by Bere Islander Mary Sullivan. This book project tells the unique and important stories of the West Cork Islands from the perspective of its children. The project takes influence from the “The Schools’ Collection”, which harnessed the folklore and local tradition of “home” dating back to 1937.
