Show Notes
The origins of the expansive Phoenix Park date all the way back to its founding as a Royal Park in 1662. In the centuries since its founding, the park has seen masses and murders, trenches and turf, allotments and animals and amongst all that, plans to turn the entire thing into an airport! John A McCullen, the park’s former superintendent takes us through some of the park’s history.
