A rare handwritten Seamus Heaney poem will be among the historical items up for auction in Dublin this month.

A signed holograph of the poem The Wishing Chair by Heaney is set at the Giant's Causeway.

It's expected to fetch in the region of £1000 when it goes under the hammer on December 13 at the Gresham Hotel.

The Heaney centre opened in Bellaghy in September.
