HOLYCROSS
1837
a parish, partly in the barony of Eliogarty. and partly in that of
Middlethird,
county of Tipperary, and province of Munster, 2 1/2 miles S.W. from Thurles, on
the road to Cashel; containing 2935 inhabitants. This place was distinguished as
the site of a Cistertian monastery in honour of the Holy Cross, of which a
portion is said to have been preserved here by Donough Carbragh O'Brien, King of
Limerick, who, in 1182, endowed it with lands constituting an earldom, and
conferring the title of Earls of Holy Cross upon its abbots, who were barons of
parliament, and usually vicars-general of the Cistertian order in Ireland. The
grant was confirmed by John, Earl of Morton, in 1186; by Henry III in 1233; and
by Richard II in 1395: and the monastery, which was originally subordinate to
the abbey of Nenay, or Maig, in the county of Limerick, and in 1249 was
subjected by a general chapter to that of Furness, in the county of Lancaster,
continued to flourish until the dissolution, and was granted by Queen Elizabeth to Gerald, Earl of Ormond, in
capite, at an annual
rent of 15.10.4. The parish is situated on the river Suir, which is crossed by a
bridge at the village, and is partly bounded by the river Carhane, which
separates it from the parish of Ballycahill; it comprises 4080 acres, two-thirds
of which are under tillage, and the remainder, with the exception of some
exhausted bog, in pasture. The principal seats are Graignoe Park, that of C.
Clarke, Esq., who has recently erected a spacious and elegant mansion on his
estate; Bresfort, of ___ Wilson, Esq.; and Beakstown, of Major
Ledwell. At
Beakstown is a water-mill for grinding corn; and in the village and extensive
distillery is now being erected by Mr. Power, of Cashel. Fairs are held on May
11th and Sept. 23rd for cattle; and there is a patent for manorial and baronial
courts, but none are held. The living is a perpetual curacy, in the diocese of
Cashel, united to that of Rathkenan, and in the patronage of the Archbishop; the
rectory is impropriate in C. Clarke, Esq.; the tithes amount to 242.12.5. The
stipend of the curate is 100, of which 18 is paid by the impropriator, and the
remainder from Primate Boulter's augmentation fund. The glebe-house was erected
by aid of a gift of 450 and a loan of 50 from the late Board of First Fruits in
1812; the glebe comprises 20 acres, subject to an annual rent. The church, a
handsome modern edifice with a tower, was built by a loan of 600, in 1821, from
the late Board. In the R.C. divisions the parish is the head of a union or
district, comprising also the parish of Ballycahill, in each of which is a
chapel; the chapel of Holycross is a handsome edifice faced with hewn stone.
About 60 children are taught in the parochial school, which is aided by the
incumbent; and there are three private school, in which are about 230 children.
The extensive and picturesque ruins of the abbey of Holycross contain many
interesting details; they consist of the remains of the nave, choir, and
transepts of the church, with a lofty square tower supported on four gracefully
pointed arches opening into the choir and transcepts; there are also several
chapels, which with the tower are of marble and limestone and of much more
elegant design and richer embellishment than the other parts of the structure,
and the roofs are delicately groined; the nave is separated from the aisles by a
series of four arches, and has a west window of large dimensions, and between it
and the choir the space under the tower is beautifully groined. Among the tombs
is one with a sculptured cross, but without inscription, ascribed by O'Halloran
to the founder, and by local tradition to the "good woman" who brought
the portion of the true cross to this place; and between two chapels on the
south side of the choir is a double range of pointed arches and twisted columns,
where the ceremony of "waking" the monks used to be performed. There
are also remains of the cloisters, chapter-house, and conventual buildings,
which being mantled with ivy and on the margin of the Suir, have a very romantic
appearance.

HORE ABBEY
1837
a parish, in the barony of Middlethird, county of Tipperary, and province of
Munster. adjoining the city of Cashel, and containing 451 inhabitants. This
parish is chiefly distinguished as the site of a monastery, founded near the
cathedral, and called Hore Abbey and also the Abbey of St. Mary of the Rock of
Cashel. It was originally of the Benedictine order, but, in 1269, or 1272, the
Archbishop David McCarvill, having dreamed that the monks made an attempt on his
life, violently dispossessed them of their house and lands, which he gave to a
body of Cistertian monks from the abbey of Mellifont in the county of Louth, and
at the same time took on him the habit of that order. It subsisted till the
dissolution, when Patrick Stackboll, the last abbot, surrendered it with all its
possessions, which, in 1561, were granted by Queen Elizabeth to Sir Henry
Radcliffe, Knight; it was afterwards granted to James Butler, and in the 42nd of
the same reign was granted to Thomas Sinclair, at the annual rent of 2s.; it is
now, with the greater part of the parish, the property of the Earl of Mount-Cashel.
The parish comprises 1519 statute acres; the land is of good quality, and the
system of agriculture improved. The living is a rectory, in the diocese of
Cashel, and in the patronage of the Archbishop: the tithes amount to 166.3.1.
There is neither church, glebe-house, nor glebe. In the R.C. divisions the
parish forms part of the union or district of Cashel. There is a private school,
in which about 70 children are taught. There are considerable remains of the
abbey church, most of which is entire, they consist of the nave, choir, and
central tower, the last supported on two lofty arches; the nave is separated
from the aisles by a series of three pointed arches, of which that on the north
side has been levelled; the choir has an east window of small size and plain
design, and in the side walls are some stalls; a small low arched apartment,
with niches in the walls, appears to have been a confessional; the vaulting of
the tower is richly groined, and many of the details are of elegant character.
