The clonmel shop was opened in June 53 rebuilt after the fire before finally closing in June 82.

Before that it was Comerford’s Bar and Grocery and before that it was Matt Feehan’s. One of the Feehan family was editor of The Sunday Press. That’s as far as I can go. The chemist shop to the left of the fire was Ben Ben Curry’s, then it was Pat Howley’s, then Seamus Maher’s and I do not know who has it now!
