National Heritage Week event at Newtowncashel
Saturday 17th August between 2:00pm and 4:00pm
Visit this fantastic community park with Mathew Parkes,
Geological Curator in the Natural History Museum, Dublin
to discover limestone rock, how it was extracted and what it was used for – including the most famous building in the county, St. Mel’s Cathedral.
See also the sculptural works in the park and see how the character of the rock shapes the artist’s choices. A second talk will take place at 4pm at St. Mel’s Cathedral the same day. This event is taking place to celebrate National Heritage Week and is being organised by the Longford Heritage Office in partnership with the Newtowncashel Tidy Towns.
