История
[ редактировать ]Англо-норманский землевладелец Хью де Лейси построил замок в Туллоу c. 1181 на месте пересечения на реке Слни. [ 3 ] Замок был захвачен Оливером Кромвелем в 1650 году. [ 4 ] Нет существующих остатков замка, и обстоятельства его сноса неясны. [ 5 ] The castle may have been pulled down during the reign of Queen Anne and the stones used in the construction of a barracks in the town.[4]
A monastery and school was founded in the fifth-century in Tullow by St Fortchern (or Fortiarnán), a pupil of St Patrick and St Lommán. Although there are no traces of the monastery today, a granite font and cross base at St. Columba's Church in Tullow may be associated with it.[6] Tullowphelim holy well is located on Barrack Street in Tullow. It is dedicated to the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus. It is reputed to be the site of the monastery founded by St Fortiarnán.[6] The current shrine dates to the 1920s. A pattern was held annually on 8 September until about 1800.[7] The Book of Lecan and the Book of Ballymote mention that Saint Darchaorthainn (Derchartainn) and her sister St. Eithne the daughters of Cormac were nuns at Tullow and are believed to be buried in the vicinity.[8] They along with Fortchern and Toranann are regarded as the patron saints of Tullow.[9]
Tullow was also the site of an Augustinian friary.[10] During the dissolution of the monasteries, the land belonging to the friary was granted to James Butler, 9th Earl of Ormond. Similarly to Tullow Castle, the friary buildings were demolished but the exact date is uncertain.[11] The Abbey Cemetery is located within the site of the former monastery.
There is a statue of Father John Murphy, one of the leaders of the 1798 Rebellion, who was captured near Tullow and executed in the Market Square on 2 July. There is a small museum with information about this period and other local history located in the former Tullow Methodist church on Bridge Street.[12]
Bishop Daniel Delany founded the Brigidine Sisters in Tullow in 1807.[13]
