Join the Society

Welcome to our Website!

Established in 2012, the Kilrush & District Historical Society is a voluntary group of individuals who are interested in the history of Kilrush and its environs.

Here you will find some of our information about the history of the area. We hope to add new information regularly, so check back often, and follow us on Facebook and Twitter (or whatever it is now called) and subscribe to our YouTube channel.

Kilrush & District Historical Society gratefully acknowledges all those whose generosity in sharing their love and knowledge of local history made this website possible.

For details of how to join the Society, membership fees, etc., please download this membership form.

Kilrush & District Historical Society is also fundraising for the Kilrush WW1 Memorial.

You can also pay your membership fee or donate using PayPal, but please click "Add a note" to indicate clearly the purpose of your payment.
