Knockdrum Stone Fort

Knockdrum Stone Fort is a circular stone rath, ringfort, or hilltop fort near Castletownshend in County Cork, Ireland. It was restored before 1860, and there were archaeological excavations from 1930–31. The three-metre thick walls are reported as either 2 metres or 1.75 metres high depending on the source, and as 29 metres in diameter. The site is owned by the Irish Government which has declared it a national monument. Inside the fort are the stone foundations of a rectangular building with a souterrain, a type of structure characteristic of the European Iron Age, but often of later date in Ireland. There are cup marks both inside and outside the wall. References External links Media related to Knockdrum Fort at Wikimedia Commons
Killoughternane Church

Killoughternane Church is a 10th-century Celtic Christian church located in County Carlow, Ireland. It was built on the remains of a timber church said to have been built by Fortiarnán (Fortchern, Fortcheirn) in the 5th century AD. Location Killoughternane Church is located in southern County Carlow, northwest of Mount Leinster and about 6 km northeast of Borris. History and archaeology St Fortichern, a bishop, one of the smiths of St Patrick and teacher of St Finnian of Clonard, founded a monastery on this site in the 5th Century. The monastery became a site noted for its learning for a millennium after its founding. The only visible sign remaining of this are the ruins of the oratory built in the 10th century. However, an archaeological survey in 2001 found traces of monastic buildings beneath the road. These were a chapel and three support buildings which were constructed from wood, had thatched roofs and walls made of clay or wattle. This site was on either side of the road and centred around Killoughternane Cross. The survey also found indications that before the building of the now ruined oratory it was the site of an earlier 8th century timber-framed church which was the same length as the ruined oratory but was considerably wider. They also discovered a Neolithic burial beneath the oratory. The survey found that there was as many as 25 buildings on the site at Killoughternane. The monastery had a round tower which was located to the north west of the Oratory's eastern wall at a distance of about 20 yards, it had a height of 96 feet (29 m) and was destroyed in the 13th century after it was struck by lightning. The monastery was expanded in the Middle Ages when a large church was built of stone with a wood shingle roof was constructed along with an infirmary, a dormitory and classrooms. In the 14th century the final buildings were added, again of stone, and these were a lecture hall, a washroom and a residence. The building The church is made of local hammer-dressed granite, with walls 80 cm (31 in) thick. A baptismal font is in one corner, and there are antae on either side. Archaeological work showed evidence of a Neolithic burial ground. St. Fortcheirn's Well A holy well and altar stand across the road. Formerly pilgrims came from County Wexford across the Blackstairs Mountains seeking miraculous cures. In the 19th century a chalice (called the Braganza Chalice, after the bishop's house in Carlow) and paten, both of silver inlaid with gold, were found hidden in the well. The chalice bore an inscription dating to 1595 and is believed to have been hidden during the Penal era when Irish Catholicism was repressed. Both are held at the parochial house in Muine Bheag.

Castlemore Moat

Castlemore Moat (irisch Ráth an Chaisleáin Mhóir) ist eine abgegangene Motte im irischen County Carlow und gilt als National Monument. Lage Castlemore Moat liegt etwa 2 km nordwestlich von Tullow und 2 km westlich des Flusses Slaney. Etwa 1 km südlich davon liegt das Landhaus Castlemore House aus dem 19. Jahrhundert. Geschichte und Archäologie Die Motte ließ Raymond FitzGerald, einer der Kommandeure der anglonormannischen Eroberung von Irland, im 12. Jahrhundert anlegen. Das Gebiet Forth O’Nolan wurde ihm zugewiesen und er heiratete Basilia, die Schwester von Strongbow. Das Paar lebte gemeinsam auf Castlemore Moat. Heute ist nur noch ein künstlicher Hügel von der Motte erhalten geblieben, der etwa 9 Meter hoch ist. Darauf steht ein 170 cm × 45 cm × 30 cm großer Menhir mit einem eingeritzten lateinischen Kreuz mit Suppedaneum. Der Mound ist nicht genau kreisförmig, sondern misst 18 Meter in Ost-West-Richtung und 13 Meter in Nord-Süd-Richtung. Einzelnachweise

Замок Каслмор

Замок Каслмор (англ. Castlemore Moat, Castlemore Castle; ирл. Fotheret O'Nolan, Rathsillan) — один из замков Ирландии, когда-то был расположен в графстве Карлоу. История Замок был построен в конце XII века после англо-нормандского завоевания Ирландии 1169 года для защиты завоеванных земель от ирландских кланов, которые пытались вернуть себе отобранные у них земли. Замок построений Раймондом Фиц-Джеральдом (Раймонд Ле Грос) — один из командиров англо-норманнского вторжения в Ирландию. До этого здесь, возможно, была крепость ирландского клана. Эти земли достались Раймонду Ле Гросу когда он женился на Бесилие — сестре графа Стронгбоу. Женившись, Раймонд жил с женой в замке Каслмор. От замка остался только искусственный холм высотой 9 м (30 футов). На холме стоит небольшой камень с изображением латинского креста. Размеры холма: 18 м с востока на запад, 13 м с севера на юг. Дом Каслмор-хаус по внешнему виду напоминает замок. Это загородный дом, построенный в 1874 году, асимметричный в плане. Здание включает в себя более древний дом, построенный в 1675 году. Крыша украшен зубцами в стиле средневекового замка. Дом сейчас заброшен и превратился в руины.

Колись замок був побудований в стилі Мотт-і-Бейлі — замку на штучному пагорбі, переважно дерев'яному. Нині це пам'ятка історії та культури Ірландії національного значення. Замок Кастлмор Моат розташований в 1,2 милі на північний захід від селища Таллоу, в 2 км від річки Слейн. Не слід плутати замок Кастлмор Моат з будинком Кастлмор-Хаус — будинком ХІХ століття, що стоїть в 1 км від Кастлмор Моат. Історія замку Кастлмор Моат Замок був побудований наприкінці ХІІ століття після англо-норманського завоювання Ірландії 1169 року для захисту завойованих земель від ірландських кланів, що намагались повернути собі відібрані у них землі. Замок побудувано Раймонд ФітцДжеральд (Раймонд Ле Грос) — одним з командирів англо-норманського вторгнення в Ірландію. До цього тут, можливо, була фортеця ірландського клану. Ця земля називалась до цього — земля фортеці клану О'Нолан. Ці землі дісталися Раймонду Ле Гросу коли він одружився з Базілією — сестрою графа Стронгбоу. Одружившись Раймонд жив з дружиною e замку Кастлмор Моат. Від замку лишився тільки штучний пагорб висотою 9 м (30 футів). На пагорбі стоїть невеликий камінь 170×45×30 см з зображенням латинського хреста. Розміри пагорба: 18 м зі сходу на захід, 13 м з півночі на південь. Будинок Кастлмор-Хаус по зовнішньому вигляду нагадує замок. Це заміський будинок, побудований в 1874 році, асиметричний в плані. Будівля включає в себе більш давній будинок, побудований в 1675 році. Дах прикрашений зубцями в стилі середньовічного замку. Будинок нині закинутий і перетворився в руїну. Див. також Список замків Ірландії Джерела FUSIO. Castlemore House, CASTLEMORE, CARLOW.

Killeshin Church

Killeshin Church is a 12th-century Romanesque church and National Monument located in County Laois, Ireland. Location Killeshin Church is located near Killeshin village, on the south bank of the Fushoge River (a tributary of the Barrow), about 5 km (3 mi) west of Carlow town.

Sleaty Church

Sleaty Church is a medieval church and National Monument located in County Laois, Ireland. Location Sleaty Church is located about 2.5 km (1½ miles) north of Carlow town, on the west bank of the River Barrow. History A monastery was founded on the south side of the stream by Saint Fiacc (c. 415–520). According to legend, Fiacc founded the church of Domnach-Fiech, east of the River Barrow. To this church Saint Patrick presented sacred vestments, a bell, a manuscript of the Pauline Epistles and a crosier. After many years of austere life in this place, Fiacc was led by angelic command to remove to the west of the Barrow, for there "he would find the place of his resurrection". The legends state that he was directed to build his oratory where he should meet a hind (female red deer) and his refectory where he should find a boar. He consulted Patrick, the who fixed the site of his new church at Slebhte (Sletty, Sleaty). Áed of Sletty was a seventh-century bishop of Sletty and was one of the first biographers of St. Patrick. Sletty was a historic residence of the King of Leinster. The last historical reference to Sletty is from 1055, after which the site lost importance. The two undecorated crosses date back to the monastic period, whereas the church is medieval in date, although some of the larger stones used in its construction may come from the earlier foundation: large boulders were common in early Christian construction. Buildings Church The medieval church is largely ruined. The church is 14.25 metres (46.8 ft) in length, 9 metres (30 ft) in width and is largely built of coursed limestone blocks, with the exception of the east gable which was rebuilt at some stage with sandstone. The granite jambs used in its construction may be taken from the earlier monastery. The only features of the church left are a broken window in the east of the south gable and a semi-pointed doorway to the west. An octagonal baptismal font, made from roughly dressed granite, stands near the doorway. it could also be recycled from the monastery. Crosses The smaller, southern of the two granite crosses from the earlier foundation is roughly 1.5 metres (4.9 ft) high and is decorated with a rough ringed cross. The taller, western cross is 2.8 metres (9.2 ft) high and is undecorated. It is made from a single piece of granite and features distinctive cusps where the arms meet the shaft. References

Newtown Abbey

Newtown Abbey is a medieval monastery and National Monument located in Trim, County Meath, Ireland. Location Newtown Abbey is located about 1.2 km (¾ mile) east of Trim town centre, on the north bank of the Boyne. History The Abbey was founded by Simon Rochfort, Bishop of Meath, for Canons Regular ("Augustinians") of the Order of St. Victor about 1206, and was dedicated to Saint Peter and Saint Paul. A synod was held at Newtown in 1216, which turned the sees of the churches of Trim, Kells, Slane, Skryne, and Dunshaughlin into rural deaneries. In 1307, Richard Sweetman, the prior, was accused of murdering Robert Mody, one of the canons, and of assisting his brother, William Sweetman, to kill another canon. The prior gave Hugh de Lacie and John le Blounde, of Rathregan, as bail for his appearance at the next assizes. There is no record of the result of the trial. William Shirwood, Bishop of Meath, was interred at Newtown Abbey in 1482. The Abbey was suppressed in the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1537. Buildings The main building is the Church of St Peter and St Paul (sometimes called a cathedral). The abbey church features lancet windows, with Norman-style sedilia to the right of the altar, and a double piscina for washing communion vessels.

This is the burial site of Lucas Dillon (1530 – 1592), Attorney General for Ireland and Chief Baron of the Irish Exchequer, and his first wife Jane Bathe. Their tomb effigies are separated by a sword of state, and so they gained the local nickname of the "jealous man and woman". References
