A visitor tells us about the Croppy Graves


The Croppy graves are in Graiguecullen and we are doing a project on County Laois, we asked Jimmy, our caretaker to come in and show us one of the hooks the Irish soldiers used in the big Battle of Carlow in 1798. Jimmy made his own hook but it was not sharpened just in cse it hurt someone! It still looked a bit scary!
