Where James Connolly was executed

James Connolly, the last of the 1916 rebels to be executed, died at this end of the Stoneworker's Yard because he was so weakened by blood poisoning he could not walk to the other end of the yard to the spot where his compatriots had been executed. He was so weak in fact, he was seated and then TIED to the seat.
