This is a copy of an original Falcarragh Show Day Programme bought in 1964 by Danny McFadden who, with his brother Tony, were staying the summer on the family farm in Upper Dunmore with Dan McFadden (Den Beag) and Annie McFadden (nee Gallagher). Dan entered two male calves, two heifer calves and a Blackfaced ram but unfortunately did not win a £2 first prize.
It is worth noting perhaps that all the animals were walked down to town early in the morning and back home again at night.
Show Day was the biggest farming event of the year.
