Ireland's oldest canon, from 1495, housed in Waterford

Eamonn joins us for a virtual tour of Waterford Treasures every morning, so we can all enjoy the marvels that are housed here, even when the museums are shut. Today it was all about Ireland's oldest cannon from 1495.

If you like Eamonn's chats with us in the morning, click here to hear more about the vestments at the Medieval Museum, considered among the most important artefacts in Ireland.

And below is his discussion with us about the cannon from 1495, and the rather gruesome tales behind it!
