What is recorded here
Famine stone is a memorial in County Limerick, Ireland. Perhaps it stands where footsteps failed during the worst hunger. Maybe the stone remembers bodies the soil swallowed. Imagine every knock on its surface as one lost name returning.
In Memory of all those who suffered and Died during The Great Famine.
