Description: Republican memorial in form of mural; corner Donegall Rd/St James Crescent, West Belfast. IRA volunteer Francis Liggett. Excerpt from poem by Bobby Sands - 'Weeping Winds' ('Oh, whispering winds why do you weep/When roaming free you are./Oh, is it that your poor hearts broke/And scattered of afar?/Or is it that you hear the cries/Of people born unfree,/Who like your way have no control/Or sovereign destiny?'). Liggett was killed by the British Army while on an IRA operation in 1973
