Cockle Shells in History: Cockle (and mussels) have been immortalised in what has become an Irish Anthem - the story of Molly Malone , a 17 century fishmonger who plied her trade on the streets of Dublin.

Lyrics :
In Dublin's fair city,
where the girls are so pretty,
I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone,
As she wheeled her wheel-barrow,
Through streets broad and narrow,
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"


Safety Information: Not suitable for children under 36 months as the shells may present a choking hazard.
