Exhibition celebrates ‘Ploughing’ heritage

A new exhibition by the Irish Agricultural Museum based at Johnstown Castle, Co Wexford — in partnership with the National Ploughing Association — celebrates the great heritage of the championships.

In preparing the exhibition, museum staff delved deep into the NPA’s archives and uncovered some rarely seen material.

The curator of the Irish Agricultural Museum, Matt Wheeler, said the exhibition will chronicle each decade from the 1930s onwards using original photographs and memorabilia.
