Camp Fair | Travels Through a Kingdom

Kaya ventured out to Camp Fair on her Travels Through a Kingdom.

The fair dates back centuries to the time of Lord Ventry when a ram auction was held in the village.

Lord Ventry brought the first black faced scotch breed of sheep to West Kerry.

He carried 1,000 ewes on his lands in Beheenagh, Camp at this time.

The fair has survived down through the years and is as always a great social occasion too for the local sheep farmers and the families of Camp.

Kaya caught up with some locals who were there on the day.
