History & Heritage Walk N Talks are back on every alternative Wednesday for the summer.

On Wednesday 15th April, step into one of the most daring escape stories in Irish History - the Catalpa Rescue! 

Starting at 7:30pm outside Scholars Townhouse at the top of King Street, join Community Historian Brendan Matthews on this immersive Walk N Talk to discover Drogheda's hidden revolutionary network of the 1850s-1870s, and the local men who risked everything, sailing the world's most dangerous seas to freedom. The walk will take place over 1 hour and be mostly on tarmac terrain. 

All are welcome on this free walking tour. Donations to support the continued research into community history are most welcomed.
