This tiny shoe was found by a farmer on a remote sheep trail in Ireland in 1835. It measured two and seven-eights inches long and seven-eights of an inch at its widest. It was black and showed wear and tear at the heel which led the farmer to believe it belonged to “the little people”. The shoe was examined by scientists at Harvard University who found it to be hand stitched and made of mouse skin.
