Ballymurphy 100 Commemoration
About this event
This April 18 marks the 100th anniversary of the most devastating incident of the War of Independence in Carlow. The ambush of the Carlow Flying Column by Crown Forces in Ballymurphy resulted in deaths of four people, including three innocent civilians, and it decimated the IRA active service unit.
