COMMUNIST activist Bob Doyle, who died in 2009 aged 92, has now been commemorated with a plaque at his birthplace in North King Street in the Smithfield area of Dublin.
He fought with the International Brigades in Spain against Francisco Franco’s fascists.
His granddaughter unveiled the plaque and thanked those who had helped arrange the memorial, which she called “a great honour for a great man.”
