Remember when The Spanish Arch was a car park and there was nothing much on Middle Street except the Augi; Back when BT was Moons and Nora Barnacle's house was just another house; before Westside was called Westside and there was nothing Latin about the Latin Quarter? That was the time when Salthill was the undisputed centre of all nightlife in the west of Ireland. While those days are long gone, Salthill seems to be reinventing itself once more.

While those days are long gone, Salthill seems to be reinventing itself once more.
