#OnThisDay 1317 The Bruce army camped in Castleknock & planned to attack Dublin. Dubliners broke the bridge over the Liffey & burned the western suburbs to deny him access but the fire spread rapidly. This is possibly why Dublin’s crest is three towers burning.
Hi,
I'm David, I'm from Ireland. I am an avid fan of history. I have my B.A. in History, my M.A. in Military History and Strategic Studies,a Post Qualification Diploma in History and I've been teaching History for five years now.
I wanted to create a podcast that examines, in great detail, major Irish battles and battles allover the world in various wars that Irish people played a significant part in.
Hope you enjoy.
