Rosscarbery RIC Barracks Attack, 1921
The Landscapes of Revolution Project are currently working with Cork County Council on a project to map the archaeological landscape of the 30 March 1921 attack on Rosscarbery RIC Barracks. It was led by Tom Barry only days after the engagement at Crossbarry. The map that was produced for this project is available below (click on image to enlarge).
