Famine - Glenties Poorhouse

This is a picture about the famine in Glenties. The Comprehensive school was the poor house where people would go when they had no food to eat.  Lots of people died.

This is  picture of the old Glenties Railway in Fintown.  It travelled from Glenties to Strabane.  It was really handy for workers.
