ONCE known as Queenstown, Cobh, a town steeped in history, is famous for being the last port of call for the ill-fated RMS Titanic in 1912.
Who better to have as my tour guide than Sinead Sheppard, who knows the place inside-out.
She’s been in local politics for the past 12 years — including as a county councillor for the Cobh Municipal District for the past five years — but her history with the area stretches back much further.
