Sentinel Stones Work In Progress

It’s so heartening to receive these pictures from our main Contractors Feely Stone in Boyle Co Roscommon. These are of the main sentinel stones in their early stages of being masked, polished and carved with the individual names of all those known to have been lost to Sligo in The Great War.
