Irish historian Ultan Cowley, an Ean member, will give a talk on “The Irish in British Construction: A Symbiotic Relationship?” The lecture will be held at the Irish Cultural Centre in Hammersmith, on 21 February at 7:00 (with refreshments at 6:30).
The talk will focus on how the Irish played such a major role in the British construction industry, will explore their contributions, and discuss what cost those contributions came at.
Ultan Cowley is the author of “The Men Who Built Britain: A History of the Irish Navvy”.
