The Skibbereen and District Historical Society

     The Society is based in Skibbereen, County Cork, Ireland.  The Society was founded in January 2002, after two month's preparation, with the aim of encouraging interest in the history of West Cork and the Skibbereen area in particular.

    The Society organises talks on various historical topics, and these talks are normally held in the West Cork Hotel, Skibbereen, on the last Thursday of the month.  Field trips to historical sites are also organised during the summer.

    The Society is a voluntary non-profiting making organisation and is affiliated to the Federation of Local History Societies.
