Macroom’s Great War Dead Remembered


On Monday the 9th of January, Macroom History Group held a presentation by Pat Sheehy in the Castle Hotel, Macroom. In his presentation, Pat spoke of the lives and deaths of many of the men from Macroom who gave their lives in what was dubbed “the war to end all wars”. The night was ended with a beautiful rendition of “1915 Christmas in the Trenches”, sung by MHG member Seosamh Ó’Críodián.
A recording of the presentation and song is available below.
