Cornish: So your grandparents lived in Cork. I have no wish to be critical of your grandmother or her family for wishing what they did. That was their business, but I would be interested to know what they thought when the tans burned the centre of the city in December 1920. The estimated destruction was in the region of some 3 million pounds. That in today's figures is probably in the region of 60 to 80 million. |
