A programme of events is being organised to honour the legacy of Thomas MacDonagh, born in Cloughjordan in 1878 coordinated by the Heritage Group. These events highlight the legacy of his family life; his poetry and writings, his commitment to the Irish language, his appreciation of the beauty of nature in the surrounding countyside and his ultimate sacrifice on 3rd May 1916, when he gave his life for Ireland.
