City quay-side monument will honour a generation of emigrants
Four stainless steel listening posts will be erected along Penrose Quay within the next two months. Each will play recordings of interviews with people who left the city for England, from that quay, on board the Innisfallen during the bleak 1940s, ’50s or ’60s.
Each person will tell their story about why they felt they had to leave, and what life was like for them and their families afterwards.
