BBC Radio Ulster - Kintra, A house in Springhill, dancing in Ballycastle, history in Cullybackey and lectures in Londonderry

Springhill, Cullybackey, Ballyclare and Londonderry.

A house in Springhill, dancing in Ballycastle, history in Cullybackey and lectures in Londonderry. 

We’re out and about this week with stories from four corners of the country! Rab discovers his name above the door at a National Trust estate in Moneymore while Helen finds out why the dancing has improved up in Ballycastle. Willie learns about some remarkable folk from Cullybackey while guest Pól O’Frighal explains how lunchtime lectures in Londonderry are exploring the links between Ulster Scots, Irish and English.
As always, listeners are invited to contact the programme with a good Ulster-Scots yarn or event to talk about. The easiest way to do that is by email - kintra@bbc.co.uk.
