It’s November 1976 and Portarlington is the feature town on ‘Hall’s Pictorial Weekly’. Fantastic footage of the town and people. See how many faces you recognise.

Fine Gael’s Vivienne Phelan has been deemed elected after a recount in Graiguecullen/Portarlington found two errors.
Local Returning Officer Donal Brennan confirmed both of those were non-material.
Ms. Phelan's votes exceeded her party colleague’s, PJ Kelly, who lost his seat.

Great turnout this morning at @PortGAA. Well Done to our TY students who helped out. Was lovely to see so many pupils up so early - and even two of our past pupils - Jonathan and Hubert who were on duty with the Fire Brigade. @EmoParish @PointatPort @PietaHouse @LaoisNews
