SUMMARY:Walking Tour Exploring Sligo's built heritage
DESCRIPTION:Queen Maeve Festival presents a walking tour entitled “Exploring Sligo’s built heritage” which will take place on Sunday 5th May at 12pm. This will depart from the Famine commemoration monument in Quay Street car park and the route is level throughout with an easy/medium topography to navigate. \nThis walking tour will be delivered by Sean Martin FRAI\, who has recently retired as a Sligo County Council Senior Architect (and fresh from his RTE Nationwide appearance).
