The old workhouse, now a famine heritage centre telling the story of the village in the 1840s through the eyes of a young girl, Wee Hannah. A moving, small museum a few minutes’ walk from the shops.
The old workhouse on the edge of the village is now a famine heritage centre, telling the story of the 1840s through the eyes of a young girl called Wee Hannah.
The exhibition is small but affecting, with the original buildings and a reconstructed schoolroom and dormitory. It is a few minutes’ walk from the shops, and a good stop on a wet afternoon.
