The site was the location of the Ladies Land League which was founded by Anna and her sister Fanny in 1881. The memorial is located on the Allied Irish Bank wall at the top of O’Connell Street, within sight of the statue and square named after her more illustrious sibling – Charles Stuart Parnell. After her death by drowning 110 years ago, Anna Parnell has been honoured with a blue plaque in Dublin city centre.
