Overview
Pat Walsh died on the 18th May 1921 following an altercation between the combined Flying Columns of Ned Aylward and Seán Hogan with British Military Forces at Tullaroan, Co. Kilkenny.
Pat was one of the driving forces in Kilkenny behind a cultural revival that was sweeping across Ireland. Indeed Pat typified a new breed of Irish Nationalist emerging from the ashes of the 1916 Rising.
To this day Pat is fondly remembered in his local community and he has become one of the best known and most proudly commemorated of the Kilkenny Volunteers to die during War of Independence in Kilkenny. This Documentary uncovers his life and explore the legacy of this Irish Revolutionary.
