CASE-STUDY AND 4 FUN EXAMPLES

DURATION: 35 MINUTES.

In this training module, we take one example that we covered recently in an Irish Homelands feature – and we take the look inside the houses of three famous Irish writers and poets at the time of the 1901 and 1911 census.

TOPICS COVERED INCLUDE:
