  1. Local Dancer

    Share Share Post
    There is a man named Lar Kinsella living in Plattenstown, two miles from Arklow. He is a very good step dancer. He goes to all the dances in the district. If there are no dances he dances round the road. He can waltz and he does reel, jig + hornpipe. Lar is almost twenty two years of age. He has a step sister who is also a good dancer. His mother + father do not dance.
