What is recorded here
Freestanding bronze statue of politician Charles Stewart Parnell erected in 1991 to commemorate the centenary of his death. The statue is set on a block-like granite plinth with scabbled finish and ‘Parnell’ inscribed on the front (south) face. The statue is the work of sculptor Fred Conlen and is set within a small paved area overlooking a public park. A small plaque set into the retaining wall behind the monument states that it was unveiled by President Mary Robinson in September 1991.
Memorable prominently sited monument which adds interest to an otherwise largely plain (albeit attractive) area of public parkland.
