For once, encouraging children to eat their greens is unlikely to be an issue as those on offer in a newly-launched afternoon tea in Newcastle are set to have all-round appeal.
The National Museum of Ireland holds a collection of over 15,000 objects relating to the revolutionary years of 1914 to 1923, telling the story of the foundation of the Irish state and the men and women who fought to achieve it.
However, there are fewer objects associated with the War of Independence, and also a difference in the type of object collected from these two different phases of the revolution.
Objects collected from the Rising tended to be mementoes of the participants, particularly personal objects of the leaders (now kept as a form of relic), contemporary commemorative ware, the material culture of the military organisations involved, and souvenirs of the destruction of Dublin.
