Enjoyed listening to that as my father grew up in one of the big houses

where's 86 minor team?

So interesting this history

Sounds like a reassignment of stolen wealth.

I understand the bitterness that prevailed during this time..Dislodge the occupiers but the Houses could have been saved. Over 300 torched! Think how these Houses might be used today- Hospitals.. Nursing Homes etc! A tragedy!

Still food was exported to England

Thats my best friend right there at 6 30 the star

A very interesting account,of a desperate period in Ireland's history.Very informative,and well presented.Thank you.

How times have changed regarding boycott and isolation. Persons not allowed into a premises now ... ie pub, hotel, for valid reasons can be assured of a hefty compensation

Really enjoyed that and thank you.

Really enjoyed this and thanks for sharing it. It was once my playground as well.

Learned only recently that my grandfather was involved in the destruction of Geashill Castle 100 years ago this month. I played/explored the ruins best part of 50 years ago.

Lovely mini documentary kevin. Well done and god bless.

Videos like this come with a 101% chance of having an Irish accent. Pity the Wyndham Act didn't come sooner though

I have no sympathy for the Anglos but the hundreds who were thrown out of work by the burnings and were left to starve, emigrate or even die were the real victims=====

Very interesting well said in depth liked the many poems in this 14 big houses burned down in Offaly was Fourth in the country out of the 300 is interesting too I also see the big house burnings as poetic justice when the Anglo Irish wealth was rooted based on blood and plunder during the elizabethan cromwellian the cruel penal laws which was over 100 years the great famine of 1846 to 1851 the land wars of 1880 s Black and tans enough said

Thank you for this timely and scholarly account of so important events in our history.

Very interesting thanks.
