There was immense pride across Longford on Monday as the county rolled out the carpet for the Official 2023 Rose of Tralee Tour and it was particularly memorable day for Longford Rose Grace Kemple as she got the opportunity to show her fellow Roses why she is so proud of the many attractions in her native county. Longford Leader / Longford Live photographer Shelley Corcoran was the with the Roses as they cycled along the Royal Canal Greenway in Abbeyshrule, as they visited St Mel's Cathedral, then the Longford Arms Hotel for a champagne reception and then Knights and Conquests Heritage Centre in Granard. We hope you enjoy her fabulous photos. And don't forget to tag and share with your friends!
