IT was the quietest Easter Sunday in living memory – perhaps even the quietest day ever around the Cathedral Town.

With the country in a lockdown, due to the Covid-19 outbreak, there was only vast swaths of nothing yesterday afternoon.

Donegal photographer Eddie Crawford captured the somewhat eerie scenes with the town’s shutters firmly pulled and the streets devoid of their usual Easter excitement.
