More than a thousand people have taken part in a protest in Strokestown in County Roscommon.
The peaceful demonstration was organised in support of the local family recently evicted in controversial circumstances, from a family farm on the outskirts of the town.
Those attending today carried banners and tri-colours, calling for an end to forced evictions.
It follows violent clashes last week in the aftermath of the eviction.
Two men were arrested and later released following last week's disturbances - and a file is being prepared for the DPP.
