• KE029-119 Historic town
  Description

  The historic town of Tralee was described in the Urban Survey of Kerry as follows; 'Tralee, the county town of Kerry, is situated on fertile low-lying ground near the southern end of the north Kerry coastal plain. The placename is derived from Trá Lí, "the strand of the Lee". In fact, the town sits not on the Lee but on the Gyle or Big river, which is now largely covered over but which was an important topographical feature in the towns development (Hickson 1894, 257). In 1121 the annals cord that Toirdhelbhach Ua Conchobhair plundered Des-Mumha "from Magh Feimhin to Traigh-Li, both church and territory(ALC, AU), there is no evidence or any settlement at Tralee before the foundation of the Anglo-Norman borough there in the thirteenth century. Hickson's (1879-89, 578) claim that 'Gwyar's burgage', which is mentioned in a late sixteenth century document, preserves the memory is very unlikely and must be regarded as unproven. Tralee was, apparently an Anglo-Norman foundation on virgin soil. Details of the initial foundation have not survived and it is not known whether it was Meiler FitzHenry, who was granted north Kerry by King John c. 1200 (Orpen 1911-20, iii,123) or John FitzThomas, ancestor of the earls of Desmond, who was the founder of the town. It may be assumed that some form of settlement was in existence by 1234 when "the defeat of Tralee was inflicted by the Galls on the Gaels" in an attack by the Mac Carthaigh and Ui hEidirsgeoil (AI; Ó hInnse 1947, 99; Orpen 1911-20,iiii, 137). An important Dominican friary was founded 1243 by John FitzThomas, and the settlement was clearly flourishing by 1286 when John FitzThomas' grandson Thomas FitzMaurie was granted customs on the sale of merchandise on the vill for seven years in order to pay for its enclosure (Sweetman 1875-86, iii, no. 226). The earliest definite evidence that Tralee had achieved borough status occurs in 1298 when an extent of the lands of Thomas FitzMaurice noted that the burgesses of Tralee paid 100s in rent annually, which suggests the existence of one hundred burgages (Sweetman 1875-86, iv, no 551, p. 255). The borough, however, is almost certainly of earlier origin. Records of Tralee in the Later Middle Ages are scarce. In 1346, the outlawry of the earl of Desmond, Maurice FitzDavid and William Stakepoll, knights, were appointed custodians of the vill (Tresham 1828, 51, no. 29), but Tralee remained in the hands of the earls of Desmond throughout the Middle Ages (Curtis 1933-43, iii,35). Evidence of trading activity in the town is provided by a record of 1375 which notes that Henry Peverell, a merchant of Bristol, was robbed of goods to the value of 100 marks at Tralee (Tresham 1828, 94, no. 168). The upheavals in Munster caused by the struggle between the house of Desmond and the English government in the sixteenth century had a major impact on Tralee. This was foreshadowed in 1579 when two senior government officials, Arthur Carter and Henry Davells, while on their way to Dún an Óir were murdered in Tralee castle by brothers of the earl of Desmond (AFM) In 1580 the earl of Desmond, by now in open rebellion, was forced to abandon Tralee on the advance of the Lord Justice Sir William Pelham, but before leaving he burned the town so that Pelham found "all the houses at tralighe burnt and the castles razed, saving the abbey (Hamilton 1867, 223; Brewer and Bullen 1868, 237). The defeat and death of Desmond led to the establishment of English control in Tralee, and one of the first results of this was the preparation in 1584 of a Survey of Desmond 's property (PRO 1881) which provides valuable information on Tralee, and on the devastation in 1530. It is described as "a certain large towne or village called tralee, which was formerly a well-inhabited borough, with a castle and edifices in it, formerly well and fully repaired, but now ruined and broken", and it is noticeable that many of the buildings, burgages and tenements are described as "prostrated "waste" or "broken" (PRO 1881, 10-11). In the plantation of Munster that followed, Tralee was granted in 1587 to Edward Denny (16 RDKPRI 39, no. 5043) but any attempts at reconstruction were interrupted by the rebellion of the 'sugan' earl of Desmond in 1598-1600. In 1598 Tralee was abandoned by it's English garrison and settlers (Atkinson 1895, 326) and occupied by the rebels who were recorded as intending, on the advance of an English force, to "break down the Abbey of Tralee....with all other buildings fit to receive any garrisons (Atkinson 1895, 415). On his advance into Kerry in 1600 Sir Geore Carew noted that Denny's castle at Tralee was "utterly defaced" (Atkinson 1903, 367). Carew replaced a garrison in Tralee (AFM) and in the same year (1600) proposals for the government of Ireland recommended "a town to be builded at Castlemange or Traly; but at Tralie rather, for that is more open to the sea and land than the other, and more convenient for the whole shire" (Brewer and Bullen 1869, 505). The early seventeenth century saw the gradual building up of Tralee by the Denny family. In 1612 Arthur Denny got government approval to wall the town although this proved to be abortive. In 1613 the towne was granted a new charter of incorporation by James I which, as well as regulating the functioning of the corporation etc., granted a weekly market and yearly fair (Cusack 1871, appendix vi, lii-lx; Weinbaum 1943, 223). Sir Edward Denny received another grant of a weekly market and yearly fair at Tralee in 1630 (Morrin 1863, 542). English colonists were attracted to Tralee and a survey of 1622 noted thirty two new English households had been established there (MacCarthy-Morrogh 1986, 174-5). This growth was interrupted in 1641, however, when the town was attacked by a large force of Confederate Catholics. The townspeople in two castles, where were besieged for six months before eventually surrendering (Smith 1756, 301-12; Rowan 1854, 161-5, 177-80). In 1642, one of the townspeople, Edward Voakley [Vauclier] testified that "the besiegers of Tralee burnt Sir Edward Denny's castle there, with the greater part of the town, to the number of one hundred houses at least" (Hickson 1872, 198). An English force under Bridges and Story reached Tralee in 1643, and found it burnt by the retreating confederate forces (Smith 1756, 313). Further destruction may have occurred in 1652, when the Dominican friary was apparently destroyed by Cromwellian forces (O'Sullivan 1971, 38), and in 1691 when the town and castle were burned by Jacobite forces (Smith 1756, 322, note b). The Census of Ireland 1659 returned a population of 277 for "Traly Burrough" (Pender 1939, 245). Street Pattern: It is difficult to determine the form of the medieval street pattern because of the substantial alterations which have occurred during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Smith provides a plan of the town in 1756 which shows that it had a long east-west axis running from the west side of High Street, via Bridge Street and the Mall to Castle Street. Much of this pattern may well be of eighteenth century date, however, a period which is characterised by linear extensions to urban cores. The concentration of small streets on the west side of the axis on Smith's map suggests that this is the old core of Tralee, despite the fact that the castle, parish church and Dominican friary are located outside it. It was a normal feature in medieval towns for the castle to be located on the edge of the town, while friaries were normally outside or on the periphery. The location of the parish church is more problematic, however, and can only be explained on the grounds that it began as a hospital and consequently it would have been located away from the main area of settlement. Only one document provides any information on the early street plan, the 1584 survey of Desmond's property. This refers to "several other burgages and gardens there, being in the st

• KE029-119002 Church
  Description

  The parish church of St John in the town of Tralee was described in the Urban Survey of County Kerry as follows; 'This was probably a thirteenth century foundation and first referred to in the ecclesiastical taxation of 1302-6, when it was valued at 40s (Sweetman 1875-86 V, p. 296). Little more is known of its history, although a visitation by Bishop Crosbie in 1615 noted that "Trally Church is upp and soe is the Chancell" (Hickson 1874, 27). Hickson (1879-89, 297) suggested that the church was held by the Knights Hospitallers because of its dedication to St. John. There are no contemporary records to confirm this but a document of 1587 noted among the lands allotted to Sir Francis Walshinghan, Edward Denny and their associates "an hospital, sometime parcel of St. John's, Jerusalem, with some small closes near Tralye" (Brewer and Bullen 1868, 451). Gwynn and Hadcock (1970, 338) suggest that it may have been a preceptory of the Knights Hospitallers. Description The church appears to be a 19th century construction but substantial sections of a rectangular building oriented E/W were incorporated into the present edifice. In the west end are two pointed windows and there are four flat lintelled rectangular openings in the west end of the north wall, all of which are now blocked. The north transept, the apse on the south, and the tower to the east are all additions (Denny 1907-9, 363-4)' (Bradley et. al. 1987, 105-6).

  Description

  17th century font located inside the parish church of St John in the town of Tralee was described in the Urban Survey of County Kerry as follows; '17th cent. Limestone. Octagonal basin with chamfered lower edge, sloping internal sides and lacking a drainage hole. The facets are tooled vertically and horizontally along the edges. One facet has I. C. in Roman lettering and PVOST in Gothic lettering. A second facet ANNO DNI 1623 in Roman lettering. The shaft and base are carved from a single block. The drum shaped shaft with sugar barley twist, rises from a rectangular base to an octagonal support which is too narrow for the basin. There may have been a further section between the shaft and the basin. One corner of the base is broken. Dims H. 94; W. of basin 69; Diam. of basin 46; T. 14.

• KE029-119004 Tomb - chest tomb
  Description

  A 15th century Knights panel which is built into a rockery in the garden of the modern Dominican church in Tralee. It is presumably from the medieval Dominican friary (KE029-236001-). Possible chest-tomb surround described by Hunt (1974, 153) as; 'In the garden of the Dominican Priory, is a figure, perhaps from a tomb-front, of the type seen at Roscommon and at Dungiven, Co. Derry. It appears to represent a knight or gallowglass in a long aketon and w earing a pointed bascinet. He carries a shield on his left arm and holds a sword in the same hand. The sword has a large circular pommel and apparently a straight cross. The stone is so worn that the details are hard to distinguish. The figure is flanked by colonettes with multiple mouldings at the side and remains of bases'. Revised by: Caimin O'Brien Date of revised upload: 9 May 2022

• KE029-236001 Religious house - Dominican friars
  Description

  The site of the Dominican priory of the Holy Cross was described in the Urban Survey of County Kerry as follows; 'This priory as founded in 1243 by John Fitz Thomas FitzGerald who was buried there in 1261 together with his son Maurice, after their deaths in the Battle of Callan. In 1295 Nicholas Strange was charged with stealing four ells and one mark of silver from the priory and also wheat from the chapel of St. Mary there. In 1325 Diarmait Mac Carthaig, king of Desmumu, was killed in the priory by Nicholas FitzMaurice or his son, William (AI sub 1320, 1328; Butler 1849, 17). The friary also served as the burial place of the FitzGerald lords and earls of Desmond. Contemporary records are known of the burial at Tralee of Maurice, 1st earl of Desmond (d. 1356), Thomas, 8th earl (d. 1468), and Joan, daughter of Gerald, the 3rd earl, and wife of Tadg MacCarthaig, king of Desmumu (d. 1411) (Brewer and Bullen 1871, 166; AFM, A. Conn. A. I. sub 1428). Rowan (1854, 33-4) lists three lords of Desmond and seven earls said to have been buried in the priory. The date of the priory's suppression is not known but it could hardly have functioned later than 1580, when the Lord Justice, Sir William Pelham, garrisoned it with 300 footmen and a company of horse, because it was apparently the only suitable building not destroyed by the retreating earl of Desmond (Brewer and Bullen 1868, 237). The 1584 Survey of Desmond's possessions, however, described it as ruinous and in great decay" ( PRO 1881, 31-2). The survey added that the Priory was large and ample before the rebellion, [and] had a certain church adjoined to it in which the ancestors of the said late Earl were honourably buried". The priory was granted to Edward Denny in 1587 (16 RDKPRI, 39: no. 5043). In 1598 it was reported that the 'sugan' earl of Desmond intended "to break down the Abbey of Tralee with all other buildings fit to receive any garrisons" on the approach of any English force (Atkinson 1895, 415), but it is not known whether this threat was carried out. A description of Tralee in c. 1682 states that "the footsteps of the ancient friary in this town are at present not discernible, for it was first burnt down in Desmond's wars with Queen Elizabeth, and about the year 1652 it was totally defaced by Cromwell's army and the stones employed in building houses and fortifications" (O'Sullivan 1971, 38). In 1756 Smith noted that the priory: formerly had a steeple but that nothing now remained of it except some of the vaults (Smith 1756, 161). In 1758 Pococke noted the only remains of the priory as "one near arch'd building, which probably was the chapel for the burial of the Desmond family, for near it are found pieces of a fine old monument it may be of that family (O Maidin 1959, 44). The 1584 survey described the priory's location as "in the Borough or Town of Tralee, on the river called Guye near the Port of Tralee .. . by which river vessels of the burthen of five tons may come to the walls of the said house" (PRO 1881, 31-2). The Gyle is now covered over by Ashe Street, the Mall, Bridge Street, Stoughton Row, Godfrey Place and Prince's Quay (Hickson 1894, 257). Hickson (1879-89, 585) located the site of the priory in the area east of Stoughton Row and Mary Street, and both Rowan (1854, 2) and Hickson ( 1874, 107) suggest that the Square occupies the site of the priory's cloisters. At present, however, all that can be said is that while the priory was clearly located in this general area, the documents do not allow of greater precision. Hayward (1976, 264) illustrates a series of fifteen blocked arches, reputed to be part of the cloisters, which he had seen near no. 43 Abbey Street, but he quotes Leask's opinion that they did not form part of a cloister arcade' (Bradley et. al. 1987, 106-09). In 1997 archaeological testing at the Abbey carpark under licence number 97E0232 by Martin E. Byrne on the site of the Dominican Priory was summarised as follows; 'An archaeological evaluation of a proposed development site was undertaken on 8 July at the request of a potential purchaser. The site lies on the western side of the Abbey Carpark, Tralee, and presently consists of two single-storey ‘lock-ups’, formed by the partial demolition of houses that existed on the site. These structures are the only extant remains of a row of two-storey houses which fronted onto the former Lower Abbey Street. The site is located within the area of archaeological potential for Tralee and in the vicinity of the postulated location of the Dominican Priory of the Holy Cross. This priory was founded in 1253 but the date of suppression is not known, although some of its buildings were still extant and in generally good condition in 1580, but described as ruinous four years later. The low roof levels and low door lintels denied access to the site by mini-digger. Therefore only two trenches could be excavated by parking the machine outside the doors, through which the machine arm was extended. A certain amount of hand-digging was also undertaken. The remains of in situ human skeletal material were uncovered in the northern trench, 1960mm (1.555m OD) below the present ground surface. The remains of a wall were uncovered in the southern trench. The wall, which is 860mm wide, stands for a height of c. 1000mm above the ‘natural’ surface (1.355m OD) and the top is located some 1100mm below the present ground surface. The foundations of the wall, along the northern face, appear to be sealed by in situ human skeletal remains, and it was not feasible to investigate the southern wall face. The skeletons appear to be generally orientated east-west. It is clear from the evaluation that evidence for the priory and associated graveyard was uncovered, although it is unclear what part of the priory the wall actually represents. Archaeological monitoring undertaken during 1996 at the adjacent site to the north did not uncover any in situ archaeological features, although window and column masonry pieces were recovered' (www.excavations.ie 1997:248 - Abbey Carpark, Tralee, Kerry). The following year archaeological testing by Laurence Dunne at Lower Abbey Street under licence No. 98E0263 was summarised as follows; 'This test excavation was carried out in advance of the construction of a commercial unit at Abbey Court, Lower Abbey Street, Tralee. The site lies within the zone of archaeological potential for Tralee and is near the site of the Dominican Priory. This priory was established in 1243 and was suppressed sometime before 1580. There are no above-ground remains surviving today. Recent test excavations by Martin Byrne, in the UDC (Abbey) carpark area that adjoins this development site, revealed in situ human skeletal remains, possible church foundations and fragments of masonry (Excavations 1997, 87, 97E0232). Two areas were selected for excavation within the proposed development site. The work was carried out with the aid of a mechanical digger and by hand. In Area 1 a trench 4m east-west x 1.6m was opened in the western section of the site. A very substantial wall, possibly dating to the medieval period, running north-east/south-west and c. 1.2m wide, was recorded in the base of the trench. The trench was not excavated any further upon exposure of the wall. The wall consisted of medium and large unhewn pieces of limestone laid horizontally and set in clay; no mortar was recorded. Two layers of silty clay, which included fragments of bone and charcoal, had accumulated above the remains of the wall. A layer of cobbles dating to the 18th/19th century had been laid on the surface of the silty clay. The layers above the cobbles were all modern deposits. A trench 5m north-south x 2m was opened in Area 2 in the eastern section of the site. A number of structural features were uncovered in the trench. Two 18th/19th-century wall sections exposed in the trench were left in situ. A third, more substantial wall, running north-south, was

Two 18th/19th-century wall sections exposed in the trench were left in situ. A third, more substantial wall, running north-south, was exposed at the base of the trench. This wall consisted of medium and large pieces of limestone laid horizontally, similar in fabric and construction to the wall in Area 1. However, the wall was only partially exposed to a maximum width of 0.8m, as it ran under the baulk of the trench. It appears that this wall runs at right angles to the wall in Area 1 and may be its return. Layers of silt overlay the wall and underlay 18th/ 19th-century demolition fill/deposits. The walls probably represent the basal or lower remnants of the south-east range of the Dominican Abbey. As the two exposed sections are running at right angles to one another, it is likely that they reflect the same structure. No batter or dressed architectural fragments were recovered or revealed. No human remains were found. Archaeological stratigraphy is present at a minimum of 1.1m in the test excavation areas. However, it is possible that further archaeological remains are present in the development site at higher levels' (www.excavations.ie/1998:289 Lower Abbey Street, Tralee, Kerry). Two years later archaeological excavations at the Abbey carpark complex by Michael Connolly of Aegis Archaeology Ltd. under licence no. 00E0433 was summarised as follows; 'Eighteen trenches were excavated within the bounds of The Abbey carpark (Trench Nos 1–12, 17, 18, 20, 36, 37 and 38), and all available areas were investigated (trenches had to be moved or split to avoid services—water, electricity and telephone). In order to keep traffic disruption to a minimum, the road network through the carpark was also left substantially untouched, although trenches were excavated along the full length of the roadway edge. The testing strategy was chosen to give the best possible picture of the archaeological remains and strata, if any, preserved under the carpark. Of the eighteen trenches excavated, twelve contained intact walls (Nos 1–9, 11, 12 and 36), eight contained articulated burials (Nos 1–3, 5, 8, 9, 20 and 37), while tombs were recorded in three of the trenches (Nos 1, 8 and 20).

• KE029-319 Ogham stone
  Description

  This stone was discovered during archaeological works carried out at this location in 1995. It appeared to have been placed there in modern times and its original provenance is unknown (SMR file). Markings on the stone were considered to represent a possible ogham inscription. The stone is in Kerry County Museum (Reg. No. KCM/18/2009; see KE029-326----). It was registered as a Historic Monument in 1995 under Section 5 of the National Monuments (Amendment) Act 1987. This is a sandstone pillar, roughly square in section, tapering towards the top. It is very badly eroded and spalled. No ogham scores are visible on the sinister side due to wear and spalling. Ogham scores are visible on the right hand angle (dexter side) close to the top of the stone and can be read as follows: two very faint strokes crossing the angle of the stone (G) followed by two more strokes crossing the angle (G); there is a significant gap after this, followed by D IOC which reasonably clear; this is followed immediately by 5 very faint Q strokes which are followed by three vowel notches, possibly U. While nothing intelligible can be made from this reading the stone is clearly a much damaged ogham stone with a series of letters surviving. Allowing for the fact that some of the letters are very worn the inscription can be tentatively be read as follows: G G………..DIOC Q U (pers. comm. Fionnbarr Moore).

• KE029-320 Ogham stone (present location)
  Description

  This is the present location of one of four stones (KE057-107----, with KE057-107002-, KE057-107003-, KE057-107004-) from Whitefield, Co. Kerry, that were displayed by the Macgillycuddy of the Reeks at the Dublin Exhibition in 1853. At least two of these, (this and KE057-107002-), were discovered in a souterrain in this townland (Macalister 1945, 208). The souterrain, not marked on the OS maps, is locally reputed to have been located on the NW side of Baunclune House, but no surface trace of it remains. Three of these ogham stones are in the National Museum of Ireland (Reg. No. W10-12; DU018-362----; DU018-363----; DU018-364----). This, the fourth stone (NMI Reg. no.

• KE029-321 Ogham stone (present location)
  Description

  This fragment of an ogham-inscribed sandstone pillar in Kerry County Museum (KCM L1992:29; CPM L286) originally came from the townland of Letter where it was found incorporated in a stile a short distance S of MacCrehin's Castle (KE079-068001-; Macalister 1939a, 17; see KE079-086---- for its original location). The stone measures 0.66m long, 0.28m wide and 0.07m thick and the well-preserved ogham scores are deeply cut. The remaining letters read: . . . ]QNETN[ . . . Two vowel notches follow the last consonant but the edge of the stone is spalled off after this point.

• KE029-322 Ogham stone (present location)
  Description

  This fragment, from one end of an ogham stone, was discovered in a stone fence near a barn at Ballintermon House (Macalister 1945, 159; KE045-052----). It was subsequently removed to University College Cork and is now in Kerry County Museum. According to O'Kelly (annotation on personal copy of Macalister's Corpus) the inscription clearly read: ROGNO. Though the stone was fractured immediately before the R, Macalister suggested that the name should be DROGNO on analogy with an inscription at Ballyandreen (KE045-107----). The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 793.

• KE029-324 Ogham stone (present location)
  Description

  Found at Fermoyle beach near Cloghane on the Dingle peninsula. The stone is a long linear‑shaped stone of old red sandstone, dimensions: 1.65m long, 0.4m in max width, 0.25m in max thickness. Now in Kerry County Museum, Tralee (KCM 2008: 134). The ogham inscription is very weathered and no meaningful interpretation has been reached.

• KE029-326 Ogham stone (present location)
  Description

  This stone was discovered during archaeological works carried out in 1995 (see KE029-319----) and subsequently moved to Kerry County Museum (KCM/18/2009). It was registered as a Historic Monument in 1995 under Section 5 of the National Monuments (Amendment) Act 1987. This is a sandstone pillar, roughly square in section, tapering towards the top. It is very badly eroded and spalled. No ogham scores are visible on the sinister side due to wear and spalling. Ogham scores are visible on the right hand angle (dexter side) close to the top of the stone and can be read as follows: two very faint strokes crossing the angle of the stone (G) followed by two more strokes crossing the angle (G); there is a significant gap after this, followed by D IOC which reasonably clear; this is followed immediately by 5 very faint Q strokes which are followed by three vowel notches, possibly U. While nothing intelligible can be made from this reading the stone is clearly a much damaged ogham stone with a series of letters surviving. Allowing for the fact that some of the letters are very worn the inscription can be tentatively be read as follows: G G………..DIOC Q U (pers. comm. Fionnbarr Moore).
