Although it was rapidly suppressed by English forces, the 1798 Rebellion remains a significant event in Irish history as it brought together radical Presbyterians and many from the majority Catholic population in opposition to English rule.
Everyone is welcome and members hope to see you there. Any questions relating to the event can be directed to Sean Corey Chairpseron Loup & District Historical Society on 07843823843 or visiting the Society's Facebook page
