Davitt (1846-1906) was born here but when he was four the family were evicted for rent arrears. They moved to Lancashire, where he worked in a cotton mill but lost his right arm in the machinery. Thus radicalised, he went on to join the Irish Republican Brotherhood, campaigning with Parnell on land reform and Home Rule, and serving two spells in prison. The museum is in an old church used before the Penal Laws outlawed Catholic masses.
