ELIHU YALE WETHERPOONS, WREXHAM 🍺  During my research for this project I visited the Wrexham Archives (formerly inside the museum). Inside the 'Cinema History' section I discovered the original plans for the building on Regent Street, which is now the Elihu Yale Wetherspoons.

Placing the original plans inside the Elihu Yale Wetherspoons, Wrexham 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 It's about time these were on the wall I reckon 🥲

THE LINEN WEAVER, CORK ☘️ The very first Wetherspoons on this journey - now home to my family coat of arms lol. Or at least I hope it's still there...the pub is no longer officially a Wetherspoons.

AN GEATA ARUNDEL, WATERFORD ☘️ Wetherspoons #2 (which also no longer exists - yikes!) - Home to Generation 6 of the Corcoran family.  The plan: to trace my Irish family history and leave behind a tribute to each generation on the walls of every Wetherspoons in the country.

THE TULLOW GATE, CARLOW ☘️ Wetherspoons #3  on our Irish road trip - now featuring a record of my Great Great Great Granddad's ownership of our ancestral home!  Also we took a quick trip to Corcoran's Pub but it was closed 🥲

Putting my Great Great Great Granddad's ownership of our ancestral home...on the wall of Carlow Wetherspoons 😂  Not bad tbf! This one looks kind of perfect ☘️ Full film: youtu.be/SHSPZHXI-A0 #wetherpoons #ireland #familyhistory

THE FORTY FOOT, DÚN LAOGHAIRE ☘️ Wetherspoons #4 in Ireland now features a beautiful portrait of my Great Grandparents! I'm not entirely certain of the context and how they accessed a camera - but I'm very happy they did!

Putting my Great Grandparents on the wall of Dún Laoghaire Wetherspoons 😂  This one was stressful. Super busy. Pints of Beamish everywhere ☘️ Full film: youtu.be/SHSPZHXI-A0 #wetherpoons #ireland #familyhistory

THE GREAT WOOD, BLANCHARDSTOWN 🪵 Wetherspoons #5 - The largest frame - featuring 3 photos of Borris (where my Grandad was born). These were taken by my Uncle on a trip in the 80s 😁 #wetherpoons #ireland #familyhistory

Putting your own pictures up in spoons is difficult already...but this was a nightmare. Despite hungover teammates, a busy pub and general chaos - we did eventually get it done 😂  Yikes...Check out the full film here: youtu.be/SHSPZHXI-A0 #wetherpoons #irish

SWORDS baby 👶 Spoons #6 and we are truly rocking and rolling in Dublin now ☘️ The image is my Great Grandad and Grandad hanging out at a stable. A stable image for a stable spoons. Fp. #irish #history #spoons #yesmate

Putting my Great Granddad up in Swords Spoons 🥄 Candidate for coolest placename so far tbf - lovely wetherspoons too, right next to Dublin airport 😂  Film here: youtu.be/SHSPZHXI-A0 #wetherpoons #ireland

Spoons #7 in Dublin and we are putting an 1839 Irish map on the wall 🫟 This is the map of the area my family lived in in the mid 1800s. Now it's something charming for the Dublin tech bros to stare at while they wait politely for the toilet after a half a beamish

META AND GOOGLE HQ SPOONS ❌ WE ARE NOT PHASED UP ON THE WALL. WHAM BAM. CHEERS MATE. SOUND. Film: youtu.be/SHSPZHXI-A0

1901 CENSUS RECORD 🇮🇪  Okay first of all, Keavan's Port is legit stunning. Buuuuut in terms of the image we put up - it's a census record from 1901 showing the current head of the Corcoran family 😁

I am actually shook by how nice this spoons is...gigantic hotel in the middle of Dublin 🇮🇪 BUT we stayed locked in...and also didn't kill each other 🙅‍♂️ Not long to go to the finish line now !! Film: youtu.be/SHSPZHXI-A0

FINAL SPOONS 😳 The Silver Penny, Dublin City Centre. This is the final photo from the whole series...and it's me and my Dad outside the house my Grandad was born in - good material for the Irish citizenship application 😂 Just don't tell Tim Martin.

7pm in Dublin City Centre - a worst case scenario for the final Wetherspoons in this series...let's see how it goes 😂  Ladies and gentlemen...The Silver Penny 🪙 #wetherspoons #ireland #dublin

FUNNY BITS FROM IRELAND 🇮🇪 A few of my fav clips from the roadtrip...we did 5 cities in 3 days, visited every Wetherspoons in the country and didn't get yelled at once (lowkey) - truly magical 🥲 Full film: youtu.be/SHSPZHXI-A0 #ireland #funny #etc #behindthescenes

So that's the end of our Irish adventure, I hope you enjoyed it! ☘️🥲 Here's a photo of me and my Dad with my Nan ☺️ 86 years ago, she arrived in Wrexham as part of the WWII evacuation operation...and we're still here now 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿❤️ #wrexham #wales
