Looking back at Killiney

Killiney Village Residents Association is delighted to announce the return of the historical photographic exhibition which was first presented back in 2015. The exhibition took place over the weekend of 22nd to 23rd April and was held in the Druid’s Chair Pub in the village. The exhibition was a great success and drew much praise from the attendees who enjoyed discussing the presentation boards and slide show with the volunteers who manned the show.

‘Looking back at Killiney: Its people, the community…an evolving history’ In 2015 Killiney Residents embarked on a journey to collect the rich history of Killiney Village and its environs. The result is an archived treasure for all to enjoy!
