25 mins
THE TETLEY
17th JULY 2019
A simple plaque in stone beside the bridge reads:
“Fad leis seo a thagadh cairde agus lucht gaoil an té a bhí ag imeacht chun na coigrithe. B’anseo an scaradh. Seo Droichead na nDeor”.
(“Family and friends of the person leaving for foreign lands would come this far. Here was the separation. This is the Bridge of Tears”.)
