Picture No	10220187
Date	1850
Description	Roofless cabin during evictions in Ireland 1850
Details	Rear view of a couple of gentlemen and two grieving women near the cabin of Pat MacNamara which has been 'tumbled' by levellers. This scene of eviction and desolation in the village of Clear was common in Ireland where potato rot ruined the livelihood of farmers who subsequently could not pay their rent. The consequence was having the roof of one's dwelling 'tumbled' to render it inhabitable which made ghost towns of many former communities.
