Site Work Begins on the County Sligo Great War Memorial Garden

On-Site construction of The County Sligo Great War Memorial Garden commences

We are delighted to announce that from February 7th 2022, ground works have commenced on the site of the County Sligo Great War Memorial Garden at Cleveragh, Sligo.

While the sentinel stones, carrying the names of those lost to Sligo during The Great War 1914 - 1918 were completed in 2020, the global Covid 19 pandemic caused the deferral of construction work on the site.

We would like to sincerely thank all of our supporters, our development partners, our benefactors and patrons for the generosity, patience and understanding they have shown the project throughout these delays.

All of us engaged in the project are truly delighted that the County Sligo Great War Memorial Garden will be now be completed over the coming few months. Please stay tuned to this page for further updates and information.
