Holly Bough 2024: The foods of Christmas Eve in Cork With Folklorist Shane Lehane

The giddy excitement of Christmas Eve was matched and accentuated by the long list of jobs that had to be done.

There was a hubbub of never-ending chores, of manic tidying and preparing, while simultaneously entertaining visiting aunts and uncles and neighbours who dropped in.
