Small riverside monument commemorating the Great Famine and emigration, set beside Station Road and the Royal Canal in Leixlip. Photograph the sculptural forms, engraved plaques and the canal reflections; the stone, metal and water textures work well in low light. Best at golden hour or on overcast days for moody contrast. Easily accessible from Leixlip Station with limited roadside parking; no entry fees. Be mindful and respectful—this is a memorial site.
