Molly Malone, Dublin


DOING HER BIT: Members of the public brave the bad weather while passing the Molly Malone statue on St Andrew's Street in Dublin's city centre. Photograph: Gareth Chaney/Collins. As well as being known and sung internationally, the popular song 'Cockles and Mussels' has become a sort of unofficial anthem of Dublin city. The song's tragic heroine Molly Malone and her barrow have come to stand as one of the most familiar symbols of the capital.
