What is recorded here
The New Line Road is a memorial in County Meath, Ireland. Perhaps the road marked a new boundary drawn during the Great Hunger, forcing people to walk past lost land or claim newly divided soil. Maybe the line separated those who kept homes from those who watched them empty, turning ordinary travel into a daily reminder of what the hunger took.
