What is recorded here
Freestanding monument to Charles Kickham, republican, poet and novelist, unveiled 1898. Composed of bronze figure of Kickham in seated pose on coursed cut limestone stepped pedestal, moulded between steps and with moulded cornice. Incised inscription to recessed panel on north face. Situated at highest elevation of Kickham Street at junction with Main Street.
A fine memorial to an iconic Fenian, this sculpture captures the aging Kickham in a naturalistic pose with the attributes of paper and quill. The elegant simplicity of the pedestal complements the fine modelling of the figure, and its prominent situation in the streetscape makes it a major landmark.
