Robert J. Noye's book
"Clare, A District History" (new 5th edition).
First published in 1975,
this book has been out of print for about ten years.
Our new enlarged edition contains seven additional chapters and many coloured photos covering the period from 1975 to 2010.
History Book stall and Display
The Clare History Group will have a book stall and display,
during the monthly Clare Show Market (9-1)
2nd Saturday of month in the Show Market, in Ennis Park and Town Hall.
The Clare Regional History Group was formed in April 1984.
It developed in response to a community-felt need for a Collection to house written and photographic materials relevant to Clare and the surrounding area.
Since then, through fund-raising, book sales and a $12,000 Bicentennial Grant, a range of equipment and software have been purchased to help ensure that written and pictorial history can be preserved and made readily accessible.
The Collection is now housed upstairs in the Clare Town Hall in Clare's Main Street.
The History Group is a fully incorporated, autonomous body which provides the skills, labour and some funding to develop the History Collection as an extension of the Council-owned Public Library facilities.
