Summary

[edit]
Description

This charming shot by Elinor Wiltshire in 1966, at the time of the 50th Anniversary of the 1916 Easter Rising, was taken at the memorial in the graveyard at Arbour Hill. Near Dublin's city centre. Somewhat ironically, given the controversy over the years about remembering those Irish who served in the British Army over the centuries and during the two World Wars, this was an old British Army cemertary. The memorial is surrounded by the graves of British soldiers who died either in service or locally. If you have never been to the memorial and you find the time to do so, you will see that it is a dignified, simple and very appropriate remembrance of those who died for Irish freedom!
