The couple moved back to Castleblayney in 1964 when Concepta's father Sean Riley retired and Harry took over the running of his garage. Concepta continued to make visits back to her friends in Coronation Street until 1975. In July 1974 her step-daughter Lucille Hewitt also moved to Ireland to be with Concepta and her half-brother Christopher Hewitt.
