Wishing a Happy Easter to all our visitors and friends.
In link with this weekend's 1916 celebrations some of you might be interested in this documentary film - Out of Ireland.
Out Of Ireland was filmed in part at Wilton 23 years ago. It was written and directed by husband and wife Paul Wagner and Ellen Casey Wagner. It was narrated by Kelly McGillis featuring voice-overs from Liam Neeson , Gabriel Byrne and Brenda Fricker to name a few.
The film tells the story of Irish Emigration in the 18th, 19th and 20th Centuries. The film also features our local Vinegar Hill and stories from the 1798 rebellion and the 1916 rising.
