A special dedication ceremony will be held today in Drumlish for the statue of famous historical Bishop.
Bishop William O’Higgins was born in Drumlish in 1794 and was a leading church figure in a tumultuous time in Irish and church history.
The statue sculpted by well known artist Dony McManus was unveiled last year, but a proper dedication was unable to be held due to Covid restrictions.
