About the event

Bandon - an overview of its' history from the early 1600's to 1900.
Take a closer look at three centuries of Bandon’s dynamic and often complex history in this informative session, drawing on materials from the Local Studies Library at Cork County Council Library.

Beginning in the early 1600s with the town’s foundation during the Plantation of Munster, this talk traces Bandon’s development through major historical periods, including religious conflict, economic change, urban growth, and political reform. Using original documents, maps, records, and rare publications from the Local Studies Library, the session brings to light the people, events, and turning points that defined the town’s identity up to the dawn of the 20th century.

Ideal for history enthusiasts, students, or anyone curious about local heritage, this overview offers a fascinating window into how Bandon evolved—from a strategic colonial settlement to a bustling market town with a legacy still visible today
