On Sunday, 29th June 2025, ‘A Made of Athy’ plaque to Frank Taaffe was unveiled on Offaly Street, outside the very house Frank grew up in. The plaque is in recognition of all his contributions to the history and heritage of Athy, as well as for his column ‘Eye on Athy’s Past’ in the Kildare Nationalist, which he has written for the past 32 years. On this momentous occasion, we would like to
Congratulate and Thank Frank for all you have done and continue to do for Athy.
