Main Street, Letterkenny

Main Street ((アイルランド語:An Phríomhshráid)) is an important thoroughfare in Letterkenny, County Donegal, Ireland. The longest street in Ireland,〔(Choose Ireland – Letterkenny )〕〔(Letterkenny Information )〕 it is divided into two sections, with Lower Main Street running from the junction at Oldtown Road to the Market Square and Upper Main Street running from the Market Square to the junction at Crossview House. Traffic flows in a one-way system from Crossview House downwards. The road junctions on the street are:
==History==
Theobald Wolfe Tone was captured and held on the street during the Irish Rebellion of 1798. He was held for a short time at Laird's Hotel opposite the Market Square〔(Wolf Tone Captured in Letterkenny )〕 before being transferred to the nearby Derry Gaol. The Wolfe Tone Bar was established in his honour and is located on Lower Main Street on the site of the old Garda barracks.〔(Wolfe Tone Bar – Official Site )〕 The Barracks building had been there since the 1850s and was an RIC Barracks up to 1922.〔(Old Garda (Police) Barracks ) – Flickr〕
Hiring Fairs were held in Letterkenny in years gone by when children between the ages of 11 and 16 were sold for periods of six months to wealthy farmers of the Lagan Valley. These Rabble Days were held annually in May and November at Speer's Lane, at the corner of Upper Main Street. The monument Rabble Children by Maurice Harron was erected at the Market Square in December 1994.〔(Rabble Days )〕
Regeneration works were carried out on Lower Main street in late 1996. Footpaths were widened and cobblestones were placed on the street at the junction with Larkin's Lane. These cobblestones were removed in 2008. The street was the main location of events when the town hosted the Fleadh Cheoil in 2005 and 2006. The Lower Main Street pavements have since fallen into a higgledy-piggledy bad state of repair which has led to calls from the local council for re-paving to be carried out.〔(Footpath concerns on Letterkenny's Lower Main Street ), Donegal Democrat, 29 January 2009〕
