Visiting March Fair 2014 – Part One
The tradition of Millstreet March Horse Fair continued on Sunday, 2nd March 2014 in mixed weather conditions but maintaining the very special atmosphere where friends meet and enjoy the colourful event. Here we share the first selection of our visit to the Fair. Click on the images to enlarge . (S.R.)
In the remaining 22 pictures we travel from West End to Main Street and onwards to The Square and Minor Row.

Where have all the horses gone? March Fair used to be one of the biggest events of the year and went on for a few days. Still brings back memories.
However, it just shows how times change. <email>
Pat, in Part Two of our feature which will be uploaded shortly we visit the Fair Field where the horses assemble. I fully agree that in comparison to the large attendance at Fairs long ago there is quite a difference in the size of the crowd nowadays.
