Episode Notes
Writer and broadcaster Vincent Woods travels across Ireland exploring county identity under the themes of culture, heritage, music and sport.
The County Measure uncovers the vibrant arts, sports, history, heritage and diverse communities of Co. Offaly.
From the volcanic vista of Croghan Hill; the community spirit restoring Daingean's Town Hall; to Birr bursting with musical talent- Vincent takes a measure of all that the 'Faithful county' has to offer.
Since the time of Clonmacnoise, the written word has always been important in the land of Uíbh Fhailí. The programme will feature a new and exclusive work from Offaly writer Ian Maleney.
The County Measure is a landmark RTÉ Radio 1 series that explores the identity and communities of Ireland's 32 counties.
