National Famine Way Shoe Stories Film
At the height of the Great Irish Famine in May of 1847, twelve year old Daniel Tighe was forced to walk 165km with 1,490 assisted emigrants from the Strokestown Park Estate in County Roscommon along the Royal Canal to Custom House Quay in Dublin. Their sorrowful journey is marked by over thirty pairs of bronze shoe sculptures on the National Famine Way walking trail. Renowned author Marita Conlon-McKenna tells the story of his journey in the National Famine Way Shoe Stories film.County Roscommon
