Teach An Spidéil is a fascinating house in the heart of Spiddal that has associations with Galway Sheriffs, Merchant Princes, John Wayne, and the Waterboys. Manchán takes a trip to Inis Mór to meet local historian Padraig – from this encounter, he can reveal to Donal Standún, the present owner of the house that it was in fact the Fitzpatricks of Inis Mór in 1650 (regarded in their day as Irish Princes of Trade) who were the first landowners of Spiddal House.
