Moving house... Famine cottage for NY

The Irish Independent

If they can move the original London Bridge to the Arizona desert, then picking up a crumbling Irish farmhouse from Co Mayo and setting it down at the bottom of Broadway should be a cinch. The stone house, which more recently has served the Clyne family of Attymass as a cattle pen with a corrugated tin roof, has been chosen as a main feature of an Irish famine memorial that will soon be taking shape in Battery Park City, at the foot of Manhattan.
