This week (August 20 – 28) Ireland celebrates its national heritage. And 1798 is a major part of that history.
So here are some events related to Nicholas Delaney’s life and the men he fought with.
There’s
- a walk in the Wicklow mountains, where he was heading when Twamley and Heppenstall were murdered and where Michael Dwyer and Joseph Holt held out after the rebellion was over
- A talk at Wicklow Gaol, where Nicholas was imprisoned until 1802
- In Co Wexford, a talk on 98 in the 1798 Centre in Enniscorthy and another event nearby in Ballinamona
And much more.
Unfortunately it doesn’t seem possible to link directly to these events, but if you’re interested it’s enjoyable trawling through the website.
So here’s the link again.
