Archaeologists have discovered four skeletons at the site of an old Cork pub, which is thought to be a mass burial pit where they met a violent end.
Former pub Nancy Spain's on Barrack Street was taken over by Cork City Council in October last year and was in the process of being demolished when skeletal remains were discovered by builders.
Further investigations have now led to the discovery of six bodies in total, while Cork City Council have said these latest discoveries provide great insight into the turbulent history and evolution of the city across two different periods of time.
