The 29 December 1920 Midleton Ambush: 100th Anniversary Virtual Battlefield Tour

29 December 2020 marks the centenary of the Midleton Main Street Ambush, one of the most important and consequential events of the War of Independence in East Cork. To mark that anniversary, the Landscapes of Revolution Project has created a virtual video tour of the ambush site, exploring the engagement, the people involved, and the landscape it took place in.

Great video watched in America😀 My Mum is from Midleton and her family has been there for ages. Great history to know of the bravery and historical significance in Ireland’s freedom from the Throne!
