His work can be seen during opening hours at the Civic Offices in Carrickmacross in the lobby beside the Library. The exhibition finishes on Friday afternoon. Paul, who lives in Carrickmacross, is a firefighter. His display includes eight galleons and a model of an Irish medieval fort (a bit like the one in Kinsale). There are pieces conneted with Star Wars and there is a display illustrating the battle of Rorke’s Drift in the Anglo-Zulu war in January 1879.
