Absolutely iconic

[Blair Paddy Mayne @blair_mayne]

It was at around 4am on the morning of 14th December 1955 that Paddy crashed his Riley roadster, having driven from Bangor, in Mill Street in #Newtownards near his family home which regrettably cost him his life… He was only 40 years old #BlairMayne #PaddyMayne #LestWeForget

@WarYearsNI Thank you for your reply.
Really sorry to hear this.
Let's hope a new venue can be found very soon,it's too important an archive to lose!
@J_Donaldson_MP please can you help?.

[War Years Remembered @WarYearsNI]

@rhonkey The museum in its current location is now closed 😭 and everything is getting packed into storage. Another location has yet to be found but 🙏 that situation will soon change.

[War Years Remembered @WarYearsNI]

@WarYearsNI - A fantastic archive...which must be kept intact and on display in NI.
A great day out ...thanks to all the volunteers for their information and help.

@rhonkey @blair_mayne They're an amazing crew who've been burning the candle at both ends for so long. Passionate to retell the stories of those who've gone before.
