President John F. Kennedy pictured passing Cork home on visit to Ireland in 1963 - and it's now on sale for €300k

A Victorian townhouse with unique historic significance has gone up for sale in Cork city - with connections to President John F. Kennedy’s visit to Ireland.

A photo from June 1963 shows the American president’s motorcade passing the red-brick home just four months before he was assassinated in Dallas, Texas.

The old colour photograph shows the former residents waving from the two upstairs windows in the background while JFK stands upright in his motor car in the foreground, greeting the Irish crowd.
