The Offaly Independent has a new 'Down Memory Lane' page and we are inviting readers to send in old photographs and memories from long ago.

If you grew up in the Faithful County and have some great black and white snaps of characters, tradespeople, the neighbours on your street or former classmates, or an interesting photo that you believe would work well in this section, you can send it to news@offalyindependent.ie.

You can also get in touch via our Facebook page. We look forward to hearing from you!
