Galway is situated in the Province of Connaught in the West of Ireland and is Ireland`s second largest county.
Galway inhabitants are known locally as" the tribes men."
This is historically linked to the Tribes of Galway City, a group of merchant families that were to the commercial forefront in the area from the mid 13 cent A.D.
The Galway slate plaque has a ship as its main feature.
The ship indicates the importance of Galway as a trading port ,dating from as early as the 7th cent A.D. However it is known that the first inhabitants to this area arrived over 7000 years ago.
This plaque is carefully sculpted and coldcast by Colm Mc Cann in studio and is then mounted onto a slate wall hanging plaque 125mm x 125mm in size.
The Galway slate plaque makes a perfect gift for anyone who has Galway ancestry.
