Descendants of people lost on the RMS Leinster, the worst disaster on the Irish Sea, were among a gathering today to mark the 90th anniversary of its sinking.

A Welsh-Irish church service is to mark the 90th anniversary of the biggest ever disaster on the Irish Sea.

ON the weekend of Friday October 10 to Sunday October 12, for the first time ever, the towns of Dun Laoghaire and Holyhead will jointly commemorate the loss of the mail boat Leinster.
