Following on from the wonderful Cashel, “Our Playground” project with Cashel Arts Festival this year, Cashel Library will screen the documentary by Mark Fitzell in the Library building, on tomorrow morning, Saturday October 12th, beginning at 11:00am until 12:15pm.

Event No. 2
Cashel Library will host a talk entitled “Harry Gleeson and the Criminal Procedures – was Harry a saint?” by Eddie Dalton, on Tuesday evening, October 29th at 6:30pm.
Eighty-three years after he was wrongfully executed for murder, the remains of Harry Gleeson were laid to rest in his native village of Holycross, this summer, to the accompaniment of music from his own fiddle. He was granted a posthumous pardon by the Irish State in 2015, having always protested his innocence.
You can locate the Cashel Library building, situated on Friar Street, Lady’s Well, Cashel, Co. Tipperary, HERE. (G487+RX)
