What is recorded here
Soloheadbeg Ambush Site is a memorial in County Tipperary, Ireland. Perhaps the ground still holds the heat of that January morning when gunfire broke the quiet. Maybe the grass remembers the men who charged before they were ready. Imagine the ambiguity of birth, a new identity forged in uncertainty rather than certainty.
This is where the Solohead Beg Ambush took place on the 21st Jan. 1919.
