TEMPLENEIRY or BANSHA
a parish, in the barony of Clanwilliam, county of Tipperary, and province of
Munster, 4 miles S.S.E. from Tipperary; containing 2975 inhabitants, of which
number, 281 are in the village. The village is pleasantly situated on the mail
coach road from Limerick, through Cahir, Clonmel and Carrick-on-Suir, to
Waterford, and in 1831, contained 45 houses. A mill is worked by a stream from
the river Arra, which runs through the village. A penny post to Clonmel has
recently been established; and it is a station of the constabulary police. The
parish is bounded on the south by the summit of part of the Galtee mountains; on
the west by Trinity College lands and a stream which separates it from part of
the parish of Kilshane; on the north by the parish of Clonfinglass and the river
Arra; and on the east by the parish Clonbullogue. It comprises 11,443 statute
acres, as applotted under the tithe act, and valued at 4516 per annum; more than
one-half is arable and pasture land, and the remainder mountain. The rivers Arra
and Aherlow flow through the parish: The Arra is remarkable for its excellent
trout, which are of a rich pink color, and in season throughout the year; and
the Aherlow abounds with trout and eels, and frequently has salmon. A
considerable portion of the Galtee mountains extends through the parish from
east to west, and is partly pasturable for sheep and goats and a few mountain
cattle, producing various kinds of heath and fern, and abounding with grouse,
hares and rabbits. A portion of the Tipperary hills on the estates of E. O'RYAN
and J.A. BUTLER, Esqs., is also in the parish; these hills stretch in a
direction parallel with the Galtees, and are much frequented by woodcocks and
foxes. The intervening valley is very fertile and in a high state of
cultivation. In the bogs near the base of the hills have been found several
large black oaks lying horizontally near the surface. The parish is well wooded
throughout; on the Galtees is Ballydavid, an extensive wood of oak, beech,
birch, larch, fir and Weymouth pine; and on the Tipperary hills is Bansha Wood,
abounding with thickset, beech, birch, fir and oak; there are also several
plantations, and nearly adjoining the village is a good nursery. Lime stone is
the prevailing substratum, and is quarried for building, repairing the roads,
and burning into lime for manure. A road from Cashel to Mitchelstown intersects
the parish, and there are numerous other roads, which are kept in excellent
repair. Lismacue, the seat of Hugh Baker, Esq, is a handsome castellated
mansion, pleasantly situated in a highly cultivated demesne embellished with
stately avenues of lime and beech trees, which latter are considered to be the
finest in the kingdom. Bansha castle, the seat of E. O'RYAN, Esq., an elegant
building in the castellated style, and Aherlow Castle, of J.A. BUTLER, Esq., are
also prettily situated. Ash-Grove Castle, or Castle-Mary, the seat of Treavor
Lloyd Ashe, Lord of the Manor of Bansha, is a castellated mansion in the Italian
style of architecture, situated at the base of the Galtee mountains, 4000 acres
of which are attached to the estate: the mountain scenery is exceedingly wild
and romantic, and the rich and well-wooded vale beneath presents a pleasing
contrast to the grandeur of the adjacent heights. On the estate is an ancient
well, dedicated to St. Berryhearth, which is much frequented by the peasantry;
and in the demesne is a small temple, in the Grecian style, with pleasure
grounds attached, dedicated to the virgin. About half-way to the summit of the
mountains is Lake Musgrave, an extensive sheet of water, imbedded within rocks,
whose frowning summits afford secure eyries to eagles, and retreats to other
birds of prey. The other seats are Ballydavid House, that of G. Baker, Esq.;
Ashgrove of S. Moore, Esq.; Barnalough House of P. Smithwicke, Esq.; and Ruan
Lodge of T.S. Manning, Esq.
The living is a rectory and vicarage, in the diocese of Cashel, united from time
immemorial to the rectory and vicarage of Graystown and the vicarage of Donohill,
together constituting the corps of the precentorship of Cashel, and in the
patronage of the Bishop. The tithes amount to 230.15.4 1/2, and the tithes of
the benefice amount to 675.7.8 1/4; the entire value of the precentorship,
including glebe, is returned at 723.7.4. The church is a neat building, to which
a handsome spire was added in 1813; it contains a marble monument to the late
William Baker, Esq. of Lismaque. The glebe-house, near the church, is a
commodious residence; the glebe contains nine acres, and there are also two
pieces of ground in the parish of Donohill, containing 58a.2r.6p., belonging to
the precentor and let on lease at 7 rent and a renewal fine of 14 annually. The
R.C. parish is co-extensive with that of the Established Church; the chapel,
adjoining the churchyard, is a neat building. There are four pay schools, in
which are about 160 boys and 60 girls. In the marsh lands have been found heads,
horns and skeletons of the moose deer, one of which, of large dimensions, was
found some few years since. The only relic of antiquity is a ruined wall, said
to have formed part of the ancient castle of Bansha, but its history is quite
unknown.
TEMPLEKELLY

TEMPLEICHARRY or TEMPLEKELLY or CALLATHAMERY
a parish, in the barony of Owney and Arra, county of Tipperary, and province of

is some bog on the mountains. There are good quarries of grit-stone, which is
used extensively for building. A slate quarry is worked at Ryninch; and the
Derry slate quarries, situated in this parish, were formerly very extensively
worked. Derry Castle, the seat of M.P. Head, Esq., is situated in a noble
demesne abounding with remarkably fine old timber; the scenery in its vicinity
is extremely beautiful, and the Shannon bounds the demesne on the west. The

schools, in which are about 790 children, and a Sunday school. On the upper
Killary mountain, a son of one of the Kings of Leinster was buried: on an island
in the Shannon, opposite the ruins of an old church, are the remains of a
monastery; and on the north side of the bridge at Ballina are the ruins of a
castle, built most probably to defend the passage of the river.

1837
a market and post-town, and a parish, in the barony of Eliogarty, county of
Tipperary, and province of Munster, 31 miles N. by W. from Clonmel, and 65 S.W.
from Dublin, on the road from Athlone to Cork and on that from Cashel to
Rosecrea, and near a branch of the river Suir; containing 5218 inhabitants, of
which number, 2936 are in the town. It is supposed that this place originated in
its having been a station of the Knights Templars, who were settled in the
castle. The parish contains 8108 statute acres, as applotted under the tithe
act; about 700 acres of very good land are the property of the Provost and
Fellows of Trinity College, Dublin; agriculture has much improved of late years,
and the parish has in it some of the finest pasture and meadow land. The
limestone quarries are very good, affording blocks of 20 feet, if required. The
manor courts have been discontinued, but petty sessions are held every Wednesday
in the court or market-house, a handsome decorated building !
in the centre of the town. Fairs are held in Jan., March, May, June, July,
Sept., Oct. and Dec., for cattle, sheep, pigs, wool, etc.; they are considered
the best in the county. Templemore is remarkably healthy, and well supplied with
water and fuel: and every encouragement is given by the proprietor to induce the
inhabitants to adopt improvements. The town is clean, well built, and modern; it
is approached on all sides by handsome avenues of ash trees, and owes its very
improved condition to the exertions of the late proprietor, Sir John Craven
Carden, Bart., father of the present proprietor, who granted the ground on which
it stands at a nominal rent, and under whose auspices the public buildings were
erected. It contains extensive infantry barracks, with accommodations for 54
officers, 1500 men, and 30 horses, and an hospital attached for 80 patients; a
bridewell, a fever hospital and a dispensary; ball, news, and reading rooms, and
a public billiard table. The neighborhood is adorned with many fine seats and
elegant cottages, having ornamented grounds. The castle was, so lately as a
century ago, the family residence of the Cardens, but in consequence of its
accidental destruction by fire they removed to another house in the demesne,
which was lately pulled down for the purpose of erecting a new mansion on a more
elevated spot: since the demolition of the old house, Sir H.R. Carden's family
has resided at the Priory, a modern building adjoining the Park, erected by the
late baronet; the demesne, exclusively of the Park and large plantations,
comprises 200 statute acres: it is situated within one mile of the town, and is
surrounded with gardens and shrubberies laid out with much taste. One of the
entrances to the Park is a remnant of the castle of the Knights Templars: the
park is well-wooded, and contains a large sheet of water; it is surrounded by
excellent land and backed by a range of mountains, the largest of which is
called "the Devil's Bit," from its singular shape, appearing as if a
portion had been taken out. Lloydsborough is the seat of J. Lloyd, Esq.; part of
the demesne is in Killea, though the mansion is in the parish of Templemore; it
is a handsome residence in a well-planted demesne. The other principal seats are
Woodville Lodge, the residence of D.J. Webb, Esq.; Belleville, of the Hon. C.J.K.
Monck; and Eastwood, of T. Bennett, Esq.
The living is a vicarage, in the diocese of Cashel, united by act of council
to the rectories and vicarages of Killavenogh and Killea, and in the patronage
of the Archbishop; the rectory is impropriate in J. Lloyd, Esq. The tithes
amount to 641, of which 420 is payable to the improprietor, and the remainder to
the vicar; the gross tithes of the benefice are 811.15.4 3/4. here is an ancient
glebe of 147 acres, in dispute: but there is a glebe of 20 acres, for which the
incumbant pays 30 per annual rent, on which the glebe-house was built by the
late incumbant, Dr. Graves. The church is remarkably handsome, both internally
and externally; it was erected about 50 years since, and has a fine spire; the
interior is highly finished and very commodious, and furnished with a good
organ, the gift of the late baronet; the window over the altar is enriched with
a representation of the crucifixion in stained glass; the Ecclesiastical
Commissioners have lately granted 169 for the repairs of the church. The R.C.
union or district is co-extensive with that of the Established Church, and in
each of the parishes is a chapel; that of Templemore is a handsome and capacious
building, on a plot of ground given rent-free by the late Dr J.C. Carden. here
is also a handsome Wesleyan Methodists chapel. A school under the trustees of
Erasmus Smith's charity affords instruction to about 70 children; it has a good
school-house, with a square tower, for the erection of which the trustees gave
300, and the late Sir J.C. Carden defrayed the remainder of the cost. The late
incumbant, Dr. Graves, also left 50 pounds, the interest to be applied for the
benefit of this school. There are six private schools, in which are about 200
children. George Bennett, Esq., vested 200 in the old three per cent annuities,
the interest of which is placed at the disposal of the incumbant for the benefit
of the poor. There are remains of several ancient castles, built at different
periods, but all of very remote date. In a cave in the Devil's Bit mountain was
found in 1790, a MS. copy of the Gospels in Latin, but in the ancient Irish
character, apparently written in the thirteenth century; it was enclosed in a
case, partly of silver, ornamented with crystal and coloured glass, and is now
in the possession of Sir. W. Betham, Knt., Ulster King at Arms.

TEMPLETENNY
1837
a parish, in the barony of Iffa and Offa West, county of Tipperary, and province
of Munster, 4 miles W. from Clogheen, on the road from Ballyporeen to
Mitchelstown; containing 3786 inhabitants. It comprises 9720 statute acres, of
which about 240 are woodland, 3800 waste and bog, and the remainder arable and
pasture. The surface is mountainous; the lower lands are of good quality, and in
a state of profitable cultivation; limestone is abundant, and is quarried for
agricultural purposes. The surrounding scenery is boldly varied, and there are
two woods of considerable extent, the property of Lord Kingston. It is a
vicarage, in the diocese of Lismore, forming part of the union of Sharahan; the
rectory is impropriate in Caesar Sutton, Esq. The tithes amount to 594.12.3., of
which 410 is payable to the impropriator, and 184.12.3. to the vicar. The
church, a neat edifice recently erected, is situated in the village of
Ballyporeen; there are some remains of the old church, the burial-place of which
is still used. The R.C. parish is co-extensive with that of the Established
Church, and is called Ballyporeen, where the chapel is situated.
On the townland of Coolgarranroe. near the road from Mitchelstown to Cahir,
about six miles from the former and seven from the latter place, are the
Kingston caverns, which, though in this parish, are sometimes called the
Mitchelstown caverns, from parties visiting them usually making that town their
head-quarters. These extraordinary and magnificent caverns were first discovered
in 1833, while quarrying the limestone hill, on the farm of a tenant of Lord
Kingsborough, named Gorman, to whom his Lordship confided the charge of
preserving them from injury, and of acting as guide. The entrance is from the
quarry by a slanting passage 50 feet long, terminating at the edge of a
precipice, from which is a descent of 20 feet by a ladder to a second sloping
passage, 100 feet in length, and greatly obstructed by scattered masses of
rugged rock, which leads into an area about 70' or 80' in diameter, and 30 feet
high. From this are various galleries or passages leading into other chambers of
various dimensions, of which at present 15 have been explored; of these, the
principal are called the House of Commons, the House of Peers, O'Leary's Cave,
O'Callaghan's Cave, Kingsborough Hall, the Altar Cave, the Closets, the Cellar,
and the Garret. The stalactites depending from the roof of several of these
caverns are exceedingly beautiful, assuming every variety of form and every
gradation of colour; in some places uniting with the stalagmites rising from the
floors, and forming beautiful columns of spar, and in others spreading into thin
transparent surfaces, resembling elegant drapery tastefully disposed in the most
graceful folds. In some of the chambers the stalagmites rise in the form of
massive pyramids, ornamented at the base with successive tiers of
ctystallizations of the most fanciful forms; and in others in columns resembling
those of the Giants' Causeway. In several places are small pools of limpid water
between large masses of rock. The extent of the cavern, including the various
chambers, is from 700' to 800' in length, and about 570' in breadth: and the
depression of the lowest chamber beneath the level of the entrance, about 50
feet; the limestone hill in which it is situated has an elevation of 100 feet
above the level of the road.
One historical significance of this parish is that it is the ancestral parish
of Ronald Reagan.

to the vicar. About 150 children are taught in a public school, for which a
spacious and handsome building was erected at an expense of 1500, of which 1100
was contributed by the Marquess of Ormonde; and there are three private schools.

Munster, 4 miles E.S.E. from Templemore, on the road by Johnstown to Kilkenny;
containing 2653 inhabitants, of which number, 602 are in the village. This
parish, which is separated from the parish of Callabeg by a small stream which
also separates the baronies of Ikerrin and Eliogarty, comprises 6193 statute
acres, as applotted under the tithe act. The land is generally of good quality,
and principally under tillage; there is a large portion of bog, which might be
very easily reclaimed. The principal seats are Cranagh, the property of J.
Lloyd, Esq., but now in the occupation of the Rev. M.N. Thompson, a handsome
mansion attached to a circular tower in the rear, the remains of a very ancient
castle; and Long Orchard, the residence of Richard Lalor Sheil, Esq. The village
has lately been much improved, and several new houses have been built; a
penny-post has been established; nine monthly fairs are held in the year,
chiefly for the sale of pigs; and a constabulary police force has been stationed
there. The living is a rectory, in the diocese of Cashel, united to the rectory
and vicarage of Callabeg, together forming the corps of the prebend of Kilbragh,
in the cathedral of Cashel, and in the patronage of the Archbishop. The tithes
amount to 501.10.; the glebe comprises 13 3/4 acres, and the gross value of the
benefice is 749.10. 9 1/4 per annum. The church is situated in the village. In

1837
a parish, in the barony of Lower Ormond, county of Tipperary, and province of
Munster, 5 miles W.N.W. from Burris-o'-Kane, on the road from Portumna to Nenagh;
containing 2573 inhabitants, of which number, 48 are in the hamlet. At this
place, anciently called Tirdeglas, "the country of the two greens,' St.
Patrick is said to have baptized several inhabitants of Thomond, who came across
the Shannon to him. St. Columba, a disciple of St.Finian, founded a monastery
here, of which he became the first abbot, about the middle of the sixth century;
dying of the pestilence in 552, he was interred here, and was succeeded by his
brother, St. Mochoemius. In 801, 1112, and 1162, the town and nearby abbey were
destroyed by accidental fires; in 842 they were plundered and destroyed by the
Danes, and in 1140 the whole place was destroyed by the people of O'Maney, a
small territory around the barony of Tiaquin, county of Galway. Little remains
of this celebrated seat of learning and religion,of which subsequently to 1162
we find no farther historical notice. The parish, which is bounded on the
north-west by the Shannon, comprises 4066 statute acres, as applotted under the
tithe act. The land is light and partly in tillage; about 2000 acres are bog,
which might be reclaimed by a canal to the Shannon; and about 106 acres are
woodland, the greater portion of which, called Killanow Wood, is the property of
the Globe Insurance Company. A flour-mill at Ballinderry, and one at
Carrigahorig, are supplied by two small rivers. Limestone abounds and is used
principally for building. The gentlemen's seats are Castle Biggs, the residence
of Dr. W. Biggs, situated in a very neat demesne, in which is a square tower,
commanding an extensive view of the Shannon and the surrounding country, and in
the vicinity is a fine echo; Slavoir, of R. Monsell, Esq.; Ashgrove, of B.
Talbot, Esq.; and the neat glebe-house of Rev. R. Stoney. It is a rectory,
vicarage, and perpetual cure, in the diocese of Killaloe; the rectory is in the
patronage of the Bishop; the vicarage forms part of the corps of the deanery of
Killaloe; and the perpetual cure is in the gift of the Dean. The tithes amount
to 300, of which 200 is payable to the rector, and 100 to the vicar: the income
of the perpetual curate is 100, half being paid by the vicar 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 1816; the
glebe comprises 15 acres, and 450 was given towards reducing the rent to 40s.,
late currency, per acre. the church is a plain building, erected by aid of a
gift of 600 by the same Board, in 1808, and the Ecclesiastical Commissioners
have recently granted 138 for its repair. In the R.C. divisions the parish forms
part of the union or district of Kilbarron, and contains a chapel. There are two
private schools, in which about 50 boys and 30 girls are taught. On the shore of
Lough Derg are the interesting remains of the castle known by the name of Old
Court Castle; it stood on the declivity of a rising ground, and appears to have
been a quadrilateral structure of two stories, with round towers at the angles:
the walls are about five feet thick and are built with a considerable batter or
inclination to the height of 10 or 12 feet from the foundation, which was laid
on the surface; the total absence of chimneys or fireplaces, indicates the great
antiquity of the structure, which exhibits several other peculiarities of a rude
age. There are also considerable remains of the ancient parochial church.

hills called the Galtees forming the background. On a part of the demesne called
the Ross, near the small river Fidachta, is a beautiful cottage, built by the
late Earl. A constabulary police force is stationed in the village; and there is
a school for children of both sexes, in which are about 100 children, under the
patronage of Lady E. Matthew, who allows the master 10 per annum, besides a
house and two acres of land. Some remains of the church exist; it is the

1837
a market and post-town, and a parish, in the barony of Eliogarty, county of
Tipperary, and province of Munster, 24 3/4 miles N. from Clonmel. and 75 S.W.
from Dublin, on the road from Tipperary to Templemore; containing 10,031
inhabitants, of which number, 7084 are in the town. This place, originally
called Durlas-O'Fogarty. is of great antiquity, and in the 10th century was the
scene of a memorable battle between the Danes and the native Irish, in which the
former suffered a signal defeat. Soon after the English invasion, the Ostmen of
Dublin, on their march to reinforce Strongbow, who was then encamped at Cashel,
halted at this place in careless security, when O'Brien of Thomond suddenly
attacked and defeated them, with the loss of 400 of their men and their four
principal commanders. O'Brien soon afterwards encountered the English borderers,
who were extending their power in this direction, and meeting with them at this
place, compelled them to retreat. A castle appears to have been erected here at
an early period, which in 1208 was besieged by Hugh de Lacy and taken from
Geoffrey MacMorris, by whom it was then occupied. In 1300 a monastery for
Carmelites was founded here by one of the Butler family, which at the
dissolution was granted, with all its dependencies, to Thomas, Earl of Ormonde.
A preceptory of Knights Templars is said to have been also founded here, of
which probably the castle before mentioned may have been a part, but no
authentic record exists of such an establishment. The principal castle was
erected by James Butler, the first Lord Palatine of Tipperary, one of whose
descendents was, in 1535, created Viscount Thurles:this castle, during the
parliamentary war, was garrisoned for the King, but was afterwards taken by the
parliamentary forces, by whom it was demolished.
The town is pleasantly situated on the banks of the river Suir, by which it is
divided into two nearly equal parts, connected with each other by a low bridge;
and consists of one spacious street, from each extremity of which smaller
streets diverge in various directions. In 1831 it contained 1210 houses, most of
which are neatly built and several are of handsome appearance: there are
infantry barracks on a small scale. The environs in every direction are
pleasant, and are enlivened by richly varied scenery: the surrounding country is
extremely fertile, and the town is the commercial centre of a populous and
highly cultivated district, and is rapidly increasing in wealth and importance.
A considerable trade is carried on in corn, which is sent by land carriage to
Clonmel; it has also an excellent retail trade, and contains a large brewery and
a tannery. The market days are Tuesday and Saturday; and fairs are held on the
first Tuesday in every month, on Easter Monday, and on the 21st of Aug. and Dec.
The market-house is a neat building in the western part of the main street. A
chief constabulary police force is stationed in the town; general sessions for
the county are held twice in the year, and petty sessions every Saturday. The
sessions-house is a neat modern building; and near it is a well-arranged
bridewell, containing 22 cells, 4 day-rooms, and two airing yards.
The parish comprises 7290 statute acres, of which 5670 are arable, 810 pasture,
and 810 bog and waste: the land in cultivation is of very good quality,
producing abundant crops, and the system of agriculture is improved. An abundant
supply of fuel is obtained from the bogs, and from the Slievardagh coal mines,
which are about 8 miles distant. Brittas Castle, the property of the Langley
family, was commenced on a very extensive scale by the late Capt. Langley, but
remains in an unfinished state. The Archbishop of Cashel has a handsome
residence here, and there is also the residence of a stipendiary magistrate in
the parish. The living is a rectory, in the diocese of Cashel, partly
impropriate in ___ Bagwell, Esq., and Mrs. Downes, and partly united, by act of
council, in 1682, to the vicarages of Rahelty, Shyane, and Adnith, and in the
patronage of the Archbishop. The tithes amount to 995, of which 135 is payable
to the impropriators, and 680 to the vicar. The glebe-house, towards which the
late Board of First Fruits contributed a gift of 100 and a loan of 1500, in
1820, is a good residence; the glebe comprises 69 statute acres, and the gross
value of the benefice amounts to 1022.3.6 per annum. The church is a neat
edifice at the east end of the town, towards the erection of which the late
Board of First Fruits advanced a loan of 2000. The R.C. parish is co-extensive
with that of the Established Church; it is the head of the diocese, and the
mensal of the Archbishop. The chapel, which is the cathedral of the diocese, is
a spacious and handsome structure, erected at an expense of 10,000, and one of
the finest buildings of the kind in Ireland. Near it are the Urusuline and
Presentation convents, the ladies of which employ themselves in the gratuitous
instruction of poor female children; each has a private chapel. St. Patrick's
College, established in 1836 for the liberal education of R.C. young gentlemen
upon modest terms, is a handsome building in an improved demesne of 25 acres,
bounded on one side by the river Suir. About 700 children are taught in four
public schools, of which the conventual schools are partly supported by a
bequest of 2000 from the late Most Rev. Dr. James Butler, and those of the
Christian Brethren by a similar bequest from the Most Rev. Dr. Bray, the
interest of which he appropriated to the instruction and clothing of poor boys;
and the parochial school is supported by the incumbent. There are also 13
private schools, in which are nearly 700 children; and a dispensary. It is said
that till within the last 20 or 30 years there were the ruins of seven castles
in this parish; there are still vestiges of two, and also of a large mansion,
formerly the residence of the Earl of Llandaff. The remains of the principal
castle are situated close to the bridge, and consist at present of a lofty
quadrangular keep, with various embattled walls and gables: the other, which is
situated at the western extremity of the town, and is ascribed to the Knights
Templars, appears to have been of very small extent; a little to the north of it
was an ancient moat. In this part of the town are also the remains of the
ancient monastery, consisting of a great part of a strong tower, with some
mouldering walls. Grose, in his Antiquities, states that St. Mary's church,
belonging to a Franciscan monastery, founded by the O'MEAGHERS in the 15th
century, occupied the site of the present R.C. chapel. Manus O'Fohily, the last
abbot, refused to surrender it at the dissolution, and was taken prisoner to
Dublin, where he suffered a long confinement. On the townland of Killinard are
the remains of an old church, to which is attached a burial ground. The greater
part of the parish is the property of Lady Elizabeth Matthew, sister of the late
Earl of Llandaff. Thurles gives the inferior title of Viscount to the Marquess
of Ormonde.

1837
a market town and a parish, in the barony of Clanwilliam, County of Tipperary,
and province of Munster, 18 1/2 miles (W.N.W.) from Clonmel, and 100 3/4 (S.W.)
from Dublin, on the mail coach road from Waterford to Limerick; containing 7,996
inhabitants, of which number, 6972 are in the town. This place, which is of
great antiquity, is supposed to have derived its name, Tipra-Rae, signifying in
the Irish language "The well of the plains", and of which its present
appellation is only a slight modification, from its situation at the base of the
Slieve-na-muck hills, forming a portion of the Galtee mountains. A castle was
erected here by King John for the defense of the territory acquired by the
English, to which may be attributed the growth of the town.; and the subsequent
foundation of a monastery for Augustinian canons in the reign of Henry III
contributed materially to its increase. The town, which gives its name to the
county, appears to have had formerly a corporation, from a grant made in 1310 by
Edward II to "the bailiffs and good men of Typerary" allowing them
"murage (as Adare) for three years." In 1329 the town was burnt by
Breyn O'Breyn, but the monastery appears to have subsisted until the
dissolution, when it was granted by Henry VIII, to Dermot Ryan, at a yearly rent
of eightpence.
The present town is situated on the river Arra, and consists of one principal
street, from which several smaller streets branch off at right angles; in 1831
it contained 1042 houses, several of which are well built and of handsome
appearance. The inhabitants are supplied with water from a public fountain,
erected at the expense of Stafford O'Brien, Esq.., who, with the representatives
of John Smith Barry, Esq., is joint proprietor of the town, which has been
placed under the provisions of the cleansing act, and it is intended to extend
to it that for lighting and watching. Considerable improvements have been made
and are still in progress; many of the old houses have been taken down and new
buildings erected, and the town has a very neat and thriving appearance: a penny
post to Cappawhite and Bansha has been established: There are temporary barracks
for the accommodation of 100 infantry. The principal trade is in agricultural
produce, which is purchased in the market and sent for shipment to Waterford and
Limerick, to which places also about 30,000 casks of butter are sent annually;
and there is a large retail trade for the supply of the populous and extensive
surrounding district. The markets, which are amply supplied, are on Thursday and
Saturday; and fairs are held on April 5th, June 24th, Oct. 10th and Dec. 10th.
The market-house, over which is a news-room, a neat building in the centre of
the town, and the shambles, were erected at the expense of J.S. Barry, Esq. This
place is the residence of the chief magistrate of police for the district, who
generally has from 20 to 25 men stationed here; and there is a small bridewell,
containing four cells, two day-rooms and two-airing yards. Petty sessions are
held every Thursday.
The parish comprises 4263 statute acres, as applotted under the Tithe Act; the
land is of excellent quality, and in a high state of cultivation; the system of
agriculture is improved, and there is no waste land. Limestone of good quality
is quarried in the vicinity, and adjoining the quarry is also one of building
stone. The principal seats are Sadlier's Wells, the residence of W. Sadlier,
Esq., a handsome house in a fine demesne, the grounds and gardens of which are
tastefully laid out; Scalliheen, of _ Sadlier, Esq.; Roseborough, of J. Roe,
Esq., finely situated in an improved demesne; and Pegsborough, of G. Bradshaw,
Esq. The living is a rectory, in the diocese of Cashel, united by act of
council, in 1682, to the rectory and vicarage of Templenoe and the rectories of
Clonbulloge and Kilfeacle, and in the patronage of the Archbishop; the tithes
amount to 276.18. 5 1/2. The glebe-house is in the parish of Templenoe; the
glebes together comprise 40 1/4 acres, and the gross va!
lue of the benefice is 967.7.8 1/2 per annum. The church, situated in the town,
was erected in 1830, for which purpose the late Board of First Fruits advanced a
loan of 2500, and the Ecclesiastical Commissioners have recently granted 127 for
its repair. The R.C. parish is co-extensive with that of the Established church;
there is a small chapel in the town, which is about to be rebuilt on a larger
scale; also a place of worship for Wesleyan Methodists. A National school-house
has been lately built, capable of holding about 600 children: there are two
other public schools, supported by Erasmus Smith's trustees, one of which is a
classical school; and 16 private schools, in which are about 530 children, also
a dispensary and fever-hospital. On the lawn in front of the classical
school-house are some remains of the Augustinian monastery, consisting chiefly
of an arched gateway, from which circumstance the school building is called
Abbey House. There is a chalybeate spring in the adjoining hills, which is much
frequented during summer.
1889
Population 7,274 in 1881 Tipperary, in the parish of the same name, barony of
Clanwilliam, is on the Waterford and Limerick Railway, 24 1/2 miles, English,
west by north from Clonmel, and 3 miles from Limerick Junction, Great Southern
and Western Railway. It rises out of the valley of the river Ara to a height
most favorable for the maintenance of good sanitary conditions. The situation,
from all points of view, is charming. In the surroundings there is a chain of
green hills, affording easily accessible look-out points, and the Galtee
Mountains, with the lowe peaks, including Slievenamuck, 1,215 feet, in the
foreground, and the higher, with Galtymore, 3,015, at the back. The beautiful
Glen of Aherlow lies between these, at a distance of about 3 miles. Handsome
private residences, in richly wooded demesnes, are features of the prospect at
every outlet.
The town, itself, is well calculated and well built, and the streets, for the
greater part, are of adequate breadth, and has good foot-ways. In all the
thoroughfares the houses devoted trade, with few exceptions, have a flourishing
appearance. Some, as may be seen from the illustrations, are quite imposing.
During prosperous times, Tipperary was reckoned among the best business centers
in Ireland, of its size. Considering that the depression has been pretty general
throughout the Kingdom, this estimate may still be regarded as not far out of
the way. Its exceptional position is due to the fertility of the large district
contributing to the markets. A great part of this has a limestone basis, and is
famous for pastures, embracing the Golden Vale.
Markets for general produce are held every Thursday and Saturday. The butter
market is held daily during the season of seven months, and to this the supply
averages about 450 casks. The right to hold markets was given by Charles II to
Erasmus Smith in 1666. An enclosed space is provided for general produce, with
entrance from the main street. Tolls are charged at the rate of 3d. per load.
Potatoes, etc., 1d. per sack. The butter market is in Church-street. Mr. Cooper
Chadwick leases the weight-house from Mr. Arthur H. Smith-Barry, landlord, and
charges 3d. per cask for weighing and delivering. A movement was initiated at
the beginning of this year looking to the establishment of a weekly market for
poultry. Fairs are held monthly for cattle, sheep, and horses, and for pigs on
preceding days. Dates are given in the list of fairs, for which see index. The
old fair green, near the railway station, consists of about two acres. This has
been used for horses as well as cattle, but at the beginning of 1889 it was
proposed that the green opposite the Catholic Church should be utilized for
horses specially, with the object of establishing a great fair.
Tipperary is an important military station, and has extensive barracks erected
in recent years, containing all the modern improvements, with first-rate
quarters for married men, etc. The town is the head of a Constabulary district,
and has a resident magistrate. It is likewise the head of a Poor Law Union. Two
sessions of the County Court are held here, usually in April and November.
BEFORE AND SINCE THE ENGLISH CONNECTION. In Pagan times the site of the present
town was a camping ground of considerable consequence, and contained a well
which was the object of superstitious veneration. This was called Tibrad Ara,
signifying the spring in the territory of Ara, and ultimately, by process of
evolution, became Tipperary. Down to about sixty years ago the water was prized
for its purity. The spring then had an outlet on the premises of Mr. John Ryan,
in Bridge-street, and when covered there broke out in the garden owned by Mr.
Maurice Hayes, at the opposite side of the way. The elevations known as the
Hills of Tipperary, once contained very large earthen fortifications. The line
extended for about half a mile from south-west to north-east, and included what
is locally called "Mutton Pie Hill". One fort, still perfect, and very
high, is seen from trains going toward Clonmel. It was adjoined by another now
partly removed, the contents having been found suitable for road-repairing.
Popular opinion attributes to the Danes the erection of these works, but Dr.
John O'Donovan, who made an examination in 1840, suggests that they were of
Irish origin, and had been used for royal or princely residences.
The English connection with the county began in 1172 upon the arrival of Henry
II, but there is no mention of Tipperary until the entry of prince John, 1185.
As Lord of Ireland, by appointment from the Pope, he immediately directed his
attention to the security of the English in their settlements. With this purpose
he ordered the creation of a strong castle at Tipperary, but what eventually
became of it does not appear. A monastery for canons regular of the order of St.
Augustine was founded in the thirteenth century, and continued to exist until
the reign Henry VIII when it was granted to Dermot Ryan. Of the entire buildings
only one arch remains, and this is seen in the grounds of the Grammar School.
It is supposed that the town was incorporated by Edward I, for there is a record
to show that Edward II, in 1310, made a grant of murage to the "Bailiffs
and Good men". Bryan O'Brien burned Tipperary in 1329. The O'Briens, with
the Fitzgeralds, for a period of three hundred years held possession of Galbally
and district, at the head of the Glen of Aherlow. This was an important pass
between a portion of Cork and the County Tipperary, and the right to dominate it
was a fruitful cause of rivalry and conflict. While the Geraldine Leagues made
head-quarters in the Galtees, sixteenth century, stirring scenes were enacted in
the vicinity of the town.
The campaign of 1650 resulted in the settlement of the choicest lands of the
Tipperary district by Cromwellians. Soon after the passage of the Act for the
watching, lighting and cleansing of corporate towns, 1829, Tipperary came under
its provisions. This measure, known better as 9th George IV, was promoted in the
interests of Newry, and found so valuable that it was extended to all the other
towns. Through an illegality in the election of commissioners it became
inoperative in 1874. In December, 1875, all the provisions of the 17th and 18th
of Victoria, chap. 103, were taken advantage of. Eighteen commissioners are
elected. The term of office is three years. An election is held annually,
October 15th, for the return of six commissioners. The chairman is chosen every
year.
In 1888 the valuation of property was L8,834 19s., exclusive of military
barracks, for which L66 13s. 4d. is paid. The rates for all purposes in that
year were 10d. in the L on buildings and 2 1/2d. on land. Fifty public lamps are
lighted by the Gas Company, under contract to the commissioners at L2 per lamp.
Street Inspectors act as a Watch during the evening and night. Repairs to the
streets are done by the Grand Jury of the South Riding.
The Board of Poor Law Guardians is the sanitary authority. A good sewerage
system has been established under its supervision. The main sewer discharges
into a tank at Cordangan, a quarter of a mile, Irish, from town, and when the
sewage has been concentrated it is sold for fertilizing. Down to 1889 the
water-supply was procured from pumps and a well in Church-street. A proposal was
made by the Sanitary authority to the Local Government Board to sanction an
expenditure of L11,000 for a high pressure service from one of the lakes in the
Galtees. Mr. Cotton, C.E., in March, 1889, held an official inquiry concerning
the matter, and there seemed to be no opposition to the scheme. Facilities for
extinguishing fires will be greatly enlarged by this. At present there is a
volunteer Fire Brigade, of which Mr. B. M'Carthy is captain.
CHURCHES, CONVENT, CHRISTIAN BROTHERS. The Catholic Church, in St.
Michael-street, is a large edifice of tooled limestone, with tower and spire. It
is in the Gothic style of architecture, and is enclosed from the street by an
ornamental railing. The interior of the church is spacious, with nave and
aisles, divided by arches, supported on sandstone pillars. In 1889 extensive
renovations were effected, under the auspices of the Very Rev. Canon Cahill,
P.P., V.G. These included the decoration of the nave, aisles and of the chancel,
repairs to the organ, and new seatings in pitch-pine. An organ gallery, with
bathstone railing, and a beautiful reredos of Caen stone, the latter costing
about L1,000, are recent additions. The high altar, presented by a lady
parishioner, cost about L600. St. Joseph's altar was given by Mrs. Ellen
Bradshaw to commemorate her mother, Mrs. Margaret Keating Barry, 1840, and her
husband, Richard Bradshaw, sen., 1865, and the Very Rev. Dr. Marnane, P.P., V.G.,
1827. There are five handsome memorial windows, stained glass: Very Rev.
Monsignor Howley, 1884; Patrick Shanahan, 1885, and his wife, Mary, 1887.
The Protestant Church is a cruciform structure, with pinnacled gables, high
pinnacled battlemented tower and graceful spire. It was built in 1830, but the
grave-yard in which it stands is an old one, well planted, and used for burial
purposes by all denominations. The interior of the church is fitted throughout
in pine, artistic gas fixtures, etc. The pulpit, of Caen stone and Irish
marbles, vary handsome, was presented by Col. Mansergh, 1877, in memory of his
father, Richard M. S. Mansergh, who died in 1876. A lectern, laquered brass, and
bible, commemorate Ven. Robert Dell, D.D., Archdeacon of Cashel, 17 years rector
of Tipperary. Died in 1883. There were 46 subscribers to the fund, out of which
the cost was defrayed. The mural memorials bear the names of: Alicia, wife of
John Massy, 1864; Agnes, wife of Rev. W. B. Lindesay, LL.D., 1878; Rev. Richard
Mauleverer, 31 years rector of the parish, 1886.
The Presbyterian Church, under the jurisdiction of the General Assembly, is
situated at the corner of James and John-streets. It is a plain gabled edifice,
dating from 1844. The congregation consists of 25 families. At the period of the
Cromwellian settlement of the district, 1651, the congregation was first
established, and was under the English Presbyterian authority. The meeting house
was then in Meeting-street, changed to Davis-street by the Town Commissioners.
For half a century previous to 1844 there had been no congregation. The manse is
at Bohercrow.
Rosanna Convent of Mercy, at the head of St. Michael-street, is one of the
finest of the order in the country. The site was originally occupied by a
private residence, with beautifully laid-out grounds. In 1866 the interest in it
was purchased from Major Henry W. Massy, by the late Mr. Richard Bradshaw, sol.,
and was re-sold to the Sisters of Mercy by his widow. A handsome Gathic chapel
was built in 1886, at a cost of L4,000. In 1882 a grant was received from the
Government for an industrial school, 64 females. A National School, with an
average attendance of about 500, is also taught. The poorer children are partly
fed and clothed. The sisters came to Tipperary from St. Mary's, Limerick, in
1864.
The schools of the Christian Brothers are at Murgasty Hill. The buildings were
erected for a fever hospital in 1836, and were occupied by the Sisters of Mercy
from 1864 until 1866. The Christian Brothers entered into possession soon
afterward. There are three schools. Rev. Bro. D'Alton was superior in 1889.
GRAMMAR SCHOOL, LOAN FUNDS, CLUBS &c. The Tipperary Grammar School was
founded in 1669 by Erasmus Smith, a cavalry officer in Cromwell's army, who left
one-third of his property in the counties of Tipperary, Limerick and Kerry for
support of three classical schools (Protestant), one at Tipperary, one at
Drogheda and one at Galway. The endowment of the Tipperary school provides L100
a year for the head master, and L100 for assistants. Attached to the school are
19 acres of land at a rent of L10 a year. Part of the grounds were formerly
occupied by the Augustinian Abbey.
A branch of the Loan Fund Society has an office in Main-street. Mr. Michael O'B.
D'Alton is hon. Treasurer, and Mr. Michael Bowen, managing clerk.
The Tipperary Loan Office was established in 1883, with a capital of L2,500 in
debentures, valued from L100 to L700 each. There is a turn over of from L8,000
to L9,000 a year. Loans from L1 to L10 are given. Repayments are made by
installments, weekly or monthly, the entire amount to be cleared off within a
period of twenty weeds. Interest at the rate of 4d. in the L is charged on
weekly, and 6d. in the L on monthly loans. Mr. John Ryan, sen., is chairman and
treasurer. The company's office is in Bridge-street. A dividend of 10 per cent
is paid to the stockholders.
The Clanwilliam Club, in Bank-place, East Main-street, was established in 1866.
It is managed by a committee of seven. Mr. Richard Carrol is honorary secretary
and treasurer. There are 48 members paying each an annual subscription of L2
10s. Officers of the Army and Navy are admitted without ballot at the same rate.
There are billiard and reading-rooms.
The Tipperary Literary Club was established over 8 years ago, and has about 200
members paying a subscription each of 10s. a year. Dr. J. J. Dowling is
president, Mr. Michael D'Alton, V.P., Mr. Denis J. Hogan, secretary, and Mr.
John Millea, treasurer. A reading-room and lending library are features. The
club has free rooms in the Town Hall, built in 1877 by Mr. A. H. Smith-Barry at
a cost of L3,000. The hall is also used for meetings by the Town Commissioners,
and for entertainments.
The Abbey View Club has its quarters in Abbey-street. It was established in
August, 1888, and has about 100 members. The subscription is 2d. per week, and
the entrance fee 2s. The reading-room is well stocked with the daily and weekly
news papers and periodicals. Fifty volumes of standard works were presented by
friends to form the nucleus of a library. In February, 1889, the club had two
billiard tables, and was about to fit up a gymnasium. Mr. William Evans is
president and treasurer, Mr. Daniel J. M'Carthy, V.P., and Mr. Edward Dwyer,
secretary.
There are four clubs in connection with the Gaelic Athletic Association: Aravale
Rovers, football, 40 members; Rosanna, football and hurling, 40 members;
Commercial, football, 40 members; Bohercrow, football, champions of Munster,
100.

1837
a parish, in the barony of Kilnemanagh, county of Tipperary, and province of
Munster, 6 1/2 miles N.W. from Tipperary; containing 3566 inhabitants. This
parish, which is also called Toemverig, is situated on the river Anycarthy, near
the new line of road from Tipperary to Nenagh, and was noted for its priory of
Canons Regular, dedicated to St. Donan, who was formerly honored here as patron,
and was probably the founder. This house, which was a cell to the abbey of
Inchenemeo, subsisted until the dissolution, and was granted by Queen Elizabeth,
in the 28th of her reign, to Miler McGrath, Archbishop of Cashel. The parish
comprises some extensive tracts of mountain, which might be easily reclaimed,
and there are large tracts of bog both on the mountain and low lands, and
considerable quantities of Marl. The seats are Kilbeg, that of S. Bradshaw,
Esq.; and Mountain Glen, of S. Chadwick, Esq. The living is a perpetual curacy,
in the diocese of Cashel, and in the patronage of the Archbishop, to whose
mensal the rectory is appropriate; the tithes amount to 215.8.4 1/2. The church
is a small dilapidated building, and it is in contemplation to erect another; in
the meantime divine service is performed at Cappagh House, the residence of Mrs.
Hunt, in the village of Cappaghwhite, which see. In the R.C. divisions the
parish is partly a district of itself, called Cappaghwhite, from the chapel
being in that village; and partly in the union of Templebeg: there is also a
chapel at Carnavarcha. About 270 children are taught in three public schools, of
which two are supported by Lord Lismore and the perpetual curate; and there is
also a Sunday school. There is a chalybeate spring in the parish, in great
repute.

or Whitechurch. About 200 children are educated in the parochial schools, which
are aided by an annual donation from Lord Waterpark; the school-house, with a
residence for the master, was built at the expense of the late Lord Waterpark,
who also gave an acre of land towards its support: there are also three private
schools, in which are about 170 children. Some remains of Ruscoe Castle still
exist, boldly situated on a rock; and there is a holy well, dedicated to St.
Kearn, much venerated by the peasantry. the Irish historian, Dr. Goeffrey
Keating, who was a native and priest of this parish, is buried in Tubrid
churchyard; in front of an old ruined chapel, close to the church, is a Latin
inscription, dated 1644, enjoining the reader to pray for the souls of Eugenius
Duhy and Goeffrey Keating, its founders.

1837
TULLAGHORTON
a parish, in the barony of Iffa and Offa West, County of Tipperary, and province
of Munster, on the mail coach road from Clonmel to Cork, and on the river Tar;
containing, with part of the post-town of Clogheen, 1965 inhabitants. This
parish contains 2905 statute acres, as aplotted under the tithe act, mostly
under tillage. Here is abundance of limestone, used for manure and building; and

have cost 6000 pounds, has lately been built at Castle-Grace by Sam Grubb, Esq.
of Clogheen. A manorial court is held in the parish by the seneschal of the Earl
of Glengall, lord of the manor. Parson's Green was the residence of the late

le Gros, who came over with Strongbow, and received a grant of this property,
with other possessions, from King John; it passed to the Butler family, and is
now the property of the Earl of Glengall. At Ballyboy are slight remains,
indicating that it was once of considerable strength, of another old castle
