Situated in low-lying, wet, marshy terrain which has been reclaimed, 380m SE of Monaincha House and 200m N of Lady's Island (TN017-019001-/002-). A slight rise in the field would seem to indicate the location of this levelled site. Depicted as a circular earthwork with trees in the interior on the 1840 ed. OS 6-inch map and as a cluster of trees on the revised 1901 ed. OS 25-inch map. Not depicated as an antiquity on any ed. OS 6-inch map. Described in 1984 as a ringfort 'that was marked only on the OS first edition map, indicated that is was removed prior to 1904' (Stout 1984, 76). This site appears to have been a tree-ring of post-1700 date located on the demesne lands of Monaincha House. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary.

Situated on raised area in bog which was formerly Lough Cre and 450m W of Monaincha Abbey. Roughly circular enclosure (diam. c.104m) which has been completely levelled in SE quad., was formerly enclosed by a bank which has now been completely reduced to scarp (H 0.6m). The island is illustrated on an eighteenth century map (Ledwich c.1790) showing a rectangular building orientated roughly E-W. This was known traditionally as the 'woman's church' and had been destroyed by end of eighteenth century (Gleeson D.F. 1947, 23).

Situated on a raised area of land surrounded by bog on an island locally known as the Women's Island in a lake formerly known as Lough Cré. The lake was drained by a local landowner in the nineteenth century (Joyce 1911, 20). Monaincha Abbey (TN018-001001), on another island, lies c. 450m to the E. In 1185-6 Giraldus Cambrensis described Monaincha as consisting of two islands 'one rather large and the other rather small. The larger has a church [TN018-001001] venerated from the earliest times. The smaller has a chapel cared for most devotedly by a few celibates called 'heaven-worshippers' or 'god-worshippers' (O'Meara 1982, 60), this appears to be a reference to Culdee or Céili Dé, an austere reform group of the eight and ninth centuries. According to Gwynn and Hadcock (1970, 41) the church on the smaller island, which may be 'Woman's Island' was dedicated to St Colum. The Annals of Innisfallen record the death of Colum, son of Fergus of Innis Cré under the year 788 (ibid.). The island is illustrated on an eighteenth-century map c. 1790 (Ledwich 1804) showing a rectangular building orientated roughly E-W. This was known traditionally as the 'woman's church' and had been destroyed by the end of the eighteenth century (Gleeson 1947, 23). A house and outbuildings now occupy the site. The island was also known as Insula Viventium or 'Island of the Living' and tradition, going back to Giraldus Cambrensis, had it that no one ever died or could ever die while on this island (Joyce 1911, 22), however, there is some confusion about this tradition as it has also been ascribed to the neighbouring monastic island (TN018-001001) which is known as 'Inch na mBeo'. The site was defined by a roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 104m). The former bank has now been reduced to a scarp (H 0.6m) and is completely levelled in the SE quadrant.

National Monument No. 125. A Hiberno-Romanesque church situated on a raised enclosure 1.2m above a partially enclosed island (TN018-001004-) known as 'Inis na mBeo' or 'Island of the Living' in Monaincha Bog. Another monastic island with a church site (TN017-019002-) is located c. 450m to the W. Possibly founded by the Augustinian canons around 1140 on the site of an earlier monastery (TN017-019002-, TN018-001005-) linked to St Canice of Aghaboe in the sixth century (Leask 1955, 129; Gleeson and Gwynn 1962, 53) and St Cronán in the seventh century (Gleeson and Gwynn 1962, 54). According to Gwynn and Hadcock (1970, 41) the church on this island was associated with St Hilaire/Hilary in or before the tenth century. The Augustinian regular canons arrived some time after 1140 and rebuilt the church of St Hilary, alias St Mary (ibid.). Around 1485 the Augustinians moved their priory to the nearby townland of Corbally (TN012-014----) (ibid.). In 1568 Monaincha was described as the island of the living consisting of two chapels and near the island a village called Corbally in which the prior and convent dwelt with a church formerly of the priory and parish (ibid., 167). The church, orientated E-W, consists of a nave (ext. dims. 6.75m N-S; 11.6m E-W; wall T 0.87m) and chancel (ext. dims. 3.4m x 3.55m; wall T 0.52m) with priest's quarters (ext. dims. 8.66m x 6.6m) built onto the N wall of the nave. The nave is entered through a round-headed doorway with three square-sectioned orders surmounted by a large roll-mould over the doorhead and three-sided outer pilaster in the W gable. The doorway itself widens towards the base. The two inner orders on the N side have been mostly replaced by plain blocks, also the inner arch has plain blocks inserted. The orders are decorated with chevrons, scrollwork and roll-mouldings with pellets and floral patterns. On the S side of the doorway there is an inscription 'ORDOT... and O F' (Stout 1984, 93). Above this doorway there is a large round-headed embrasure with a cusped ogee-headed single-light window with hollow trefoil in external spandrel possibly of fifteenth/sixteenth-century date. There is an original twelfth-century window at the E end of the S wall of the nave consisting of a single round-headed light within a splayed round-headed embrasure. Two other windows in this E wall are of thirteenth-century date, however, the jambs of these windows are not properly aligned, suggesting that they were incorrectly reassembled at some later date, possibly during nineteenth-century refurbishment. Similarly the E window of the chancel is also of thirteenth-century date and appears to be re-inserted after rebuilding. In the S wall of the nave the thirteenth-century windows appear to have been two-lights though the central mullion and heads are missing. The cut-stone segmental-headed embrasure arch survives, as do the moulded embrasure jambs which consist of engaged columns surmounted by carved heads encompassed by leaf clusters springing from long stalks. The S wall of the chancel has a simple original round-headed single-light window set within a round-headed splayed embrasure. There is a small aumbry on either side of this window, the base of the aumbrys and window are defined by an internal string-course. The round-headed chancel arch is very ornate and consists of three round-sectioned orders. Both the shafts and bases are plain but the capitals are fluted. On the face and soffit of the first arch there are chevrons outlined with bead and fillet mouldings. In the spandrels there are stylised foliage patterns and simplified anthemions (Stout 1984, 94), the latter motif is repeated on the second arch which contains chevron and roll-mouldings. On the lowest arch stone on the N side there is an animal carved in relief which appears to be an elephant. There is another figure beside it but this is difficult to distinguish. Externally the church rests on a basal plinth (Wth 0.15m x H 0.19m H), however the S wall of the chancel stands on a double plinth and the N and E walls rest on a three-tiered plinth. Unusually there is an engaged column at the external NE, SW and SE angles of the chancel. There is no such column at the NW angle and it seems that the N wall and NE corner of the chancel have been completely rebuilt. This is further supported by the lack of an internal string-course on the N wall while one runs along from the S to the E wall. The engaged columns are quite eroded in places and some sections have been replaced by hexagonal pieces with pronounced pock-tooling, also square cap-stones and column bases have been inserted in NE and SE angles - these appear to be nineteenth or early twentieth-century inserts. Coping of the very steep pitched chancel roof is visible on the external E wall of the nave. The slope of this roof bears no relationship to the capitals of the engaged columns. A pointed-doorway was inserted in the E end of the N wall of the nave to give access to the priest's quarters which were constructed in the fifteenth/sixteenth century. This doorway is a mixture of carved stones, including a reused round-sectioned engaged column as the W base, suggesting that the doorway was rebuilt more recently, perhaps in the nineteenth century. This doorway leads into a short lobby giving access to W to a mural stair rising to first-floor accommodation. A pointed doorway at ground-floor level, opposite the doorway in the nave, gives access to a barrel-vaulted chamber with three collapsed and rebuilt single-lights - at the N end of the W wall, in the N gable and at the S end of the E wall. Of the first-floor chamber only the N gable wall survives which contains a flat-headed window with jambs rebated internally and chamfered externally. The embrasure contains stone window seats.

National Monument No. 125. Situated seven metres WSW of the E gable of the church (TN018-001001-), having been moved from its original location (Harbison 1970, 232-3). The sandstone base (dims. 0.86m x 0.69m; H 0.43m) is decorated with a sequence of horses on its S face. There is nothing visible on the N or E faces. The W face is unclear. The shaft of the cross is missing and has been replaced with a plain concrete shaft, with pebble inclusions. The sandstone with quartz head of the cross depicts Christ crucified on the W face. The Christ figure, carved in relief, is wearing a long robe with arms extended, neither the hands nor head survive. The cross was encircled but only the lower portion of this open circle survives. The N and S sides of the shaft and the outer surface of the circle are decorated with interlace. The E face is very worn with possible faint remains of an interlace pattern. In 1922, Crawford's photograph of the cross at Monaincha shows that the head of the cross sat directly into the base without any evidence for a shaft (Crawford 1922, 81). Described by Harbison as 'The head and base of a cross have been united by means of a modern shaft outside the west end of the Romanesque church at Monaincha, near Roscrea. There is no compelling reason why base and head should not be contemporary. Base The base is about 43cm high, and measures 85cm by 70cm at ground level. Its east face and north side are undecorated. SOUTH SIDE The south side bears two horsemen, between whom there is a large figure with drooping head, possibly speared in the back by the right-hand rider. The horses stand on stepped crosses in relief with sunken equal-armed crosses in the centre. O Sabhaios suggests that the scene may represent Exodus/the 'world'. WEST FACE The west face obviously bears figure sculpture, but its nature can no longer be discerned. Head The head is about 93cm high and 61cm across the arms. The shaft measures 29cm in width and 20cm in depth. Only the two lower segments of the ring survive, and the armpits have a stepped form. EAST FACE The east face bears much-worn animal interlace. WEST FACE : THE CRUCIFIED CHRIST The west face bears a belted figure of Christ crucified, standing out about 6cms in relief. He is clad in a long robe, possibly belted at the slender waist, and dropping vertically from the broader hips. SIDES Both sides bear much-worn animal interlace. The top of the north side of the shaft has a fragmentary panel bearing the heads of two unidentified figures' (Harbison 1992, vol. 1, 138-9).

Situated on an island surrounded by bog, but formerly surrounded by a lake known as Lough Cré. The lake was drained by a local landowner in the nineteenth century (Joyce 1911, 20). Another monastic island with a church site (TN017-019) is located c. 450m to the W. The island itself is 104-8m E-W in diameter and contains a circular enclosure (diam. 65m N-S; c. 83m E-W) which is defined by a scarp (H 1m) in the N quadrant and a bank (Wth 3m; int. H 0.65m; ext. H 1.57m) in the SW quadrant. Elsewhere the limit of this enclosure is difficult to ascertain. The twelfth-century church (TN018-001001) lies within a raised roughly circular enclosure in the NE sector of the larger enclosure. The island is depicted on an eighteenth-century illustration by Ledwich (Stout 1984, 88). This appears to be the larger island described by Giraldus Cambrensis in the twelfth century, stating that 'no woman or animal of the female sex could ever enter the larger island without dying immediately' (O'Meara 1982, 60).

Situated in the NW quadrant of an island in a lake formerly known as Lough Cré with a nearby abbey (TN018-001001) to the N. Only the wall-footings of the E wall (L 2.4m) and S wall (L 3.3m) and the SE angle are visible and the site is primarily defined by a mound of grass-covered stone. The mound survives to height of 1.35m. This may be the church depicted on Ledwich's map of c. 1790, though on his map it is depicted in the S quadrant of the island and is aligned N-S (Ledwich 1804).

Fish ponds are depicted on Ledwich's map of c.1790, these are shown as lying immediately W of Moinaincha Island. This area is now planted with conifers with no visible trace of the fish ponds. These are possibly of eighteenth-century date but may be earlier so are included in the RMP. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary.

A Hiberno-Romanesque church (TN018-001001) situated in centre of graveyard on a raised enclosure 1.2m above a partially enclosed island (TN018-001004) known as 'Inis na mBeo' or 'Island of the Living' in Monaincha Bog. Another monastic island with a church site (TN017-019002) is located c. 450m to the W. Possibly founded by the Augustinian canons around 1140 on the site of an earlier monastery (TN017-019002, TN018-001005) linked to St Canice of Aghaboe in the sixth century (Leask 1955, 129; Gleeson and Gwynn 1962, 53) and St Cronán in the seventh century (Gleeson and Gwynn 1962, 54). According to Gwynn and Hadcock (1970, 41) the church on this island was associated with St Hilaire/Hilary in or before the tenth century. The Augustinian regular canons arrived some time after 1140 and rebuilt the church of St Hilary, alias St Mary (ibid.). Around 1485 the Augustinians moved their priory to the nearby townland of Corbally (TN012-014) (ibid.). In 1568 Monaincha was described as the island of the living consisting of two chapels and near the island a village called Corbally in which the prior and convent dwelt with a church formerly of the priory and parish (ibid., 167). The church, orientated E-W, consists of a nave and chancel with priest's quarters built onto the N wall of the nave. The nave is entered through a round-headed doorway with three square-sectioned orders surmounted by a large roll-mould over the doorhead and three-sided outer pilaster in the W gable. The doorway itself widens towards the base. The two inner orders on the N side have been mostly replaced by plain blocks, also the inner arch has plain blocks inserted. The orders are decorated with chevrons, scrollwork and roll-mouldings with pellets and floral patterns. On the S side of the doorway there is an inscription 'ORDOT... and O F' (Stout 1984, 93).

The Augustinian regular canons arrived some time after 1140 and rebuilt the church of St Hilary, alias St Mary (ibid.). According to Harbison this poorly preserved cross-slab was situated on the floor of the church (TN018-001001) at Monaincha (Harbison 1991, 132), today there are no visible signs of this cross-slab in the floor of the church. Described by Crawford in 1911 as 'The peculiarity of this carving is that the cross, if such it may be called, has no arms. It has a circular expanded centre, and as the ends are broken, the shape of the terminals is unknown, and the top and bottom cannot be distinguished with certainty. In the centre there is a simple pattern of one band, having four loops pointing to the centre, and leaving a space shaped as a cross of that early form which is bounded entirely by arcs of circles. Surrounding this are four circular bands, alternately wide and narrow, and very accurately described, the whole forming a centre-piece 13.5 inches in diameter. Another curious point is that the inner bands are continued into the stem in one direction only, while the outer are prolonged both ways, thus making the shaft or stem of double width at one end. A line is incised along each edge of the stone, the greatest dimensions of which, parallel to and at right angles to the axis are 3 feet 7 inches and 1 foot 11 inches' (JRSAI 1911, vol. 1, part 1, 68-9).

Described by Harbison (1992, vol. 1, 139) as following ; 'the fragment of a head from a possible high cross that was stored in the National Museum of Ireland and which he described from a photograph taken by the Museum as a thin cross fragment from Monaincha, which represents the top of the head of a cross, together with a small fragment of the ring. The head has two raised mouldings indicating the outline of a cross within the head, while the broad ring has a raised undecorated panel. The other side is undecorated except for a grooved line. The fragment is said to have been brought back to Monaincha from the Museum, but there is no trace of it there now'. No trace of this fragment of a possible high cross could be found within the church (TN018-001001-) and graveyard (TN018-001008-) at Monaincha. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien.

Listed as Monaincha 1 by Okasha & Forsyth (Okasha & Forsyth 2001, 198) who state that `In 1851 this stone was drawn by a Mr Waters, a police constable from Roscrea, who sent the drawing to Petrie. When it was found, the stone was taken to the house of the landowner and was there in 1869 when it was drawn by Stokes ... At some time after this, the middle and left portions went missing. In 1886 William Birch presented the right portion to the British Museum ... This right piece of stone, now in two pieces, was seen and recognised by K[atherine] F[orsyth] in the British Museum store in 1996.' (Okasha & Forsyth 2001, 198). Thia slab measures 0.59 x 1.245 x 0.085 . According to Okasha and Forsyth `Part of the stone is in the basement store of the British Museum, reg. No. 86/5-10.1; the additional parts, recorded in the nineteenth century, are now lost' (Okasha & Forsyth 2001, 197) There was no carving or other decoration on this slab which had the following inscription [--]O[--]:E:A OROIT AR MAENACH UA MAELLUGDACH, that when translated reads 'A prayer for Máenach úa Máel-Lugdach. According to Petrie, 'The name Maenach was borne by an Abbot of Roscrea, whose death is recorded: `A.D. 862. Maenach, son of Conmhach, Abbot of Roscrea, died'. Whether this son of Conmhach could have been identical with the descendant of Mael-lugdach may be questioned' (Petrie 1878, 36) References Macalister, R. 1949 102 minor reference Okasha & Forsyth 2001 197--201 photo,drawing substantial discussion Petrie, G. 1878, 36, Plate XXIII, Fig. 49 drawing concise discussion Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien.

Listed as Monaincha 2 by Okasha & Forsyth (Okasha & Forsyth 2001, 201-02) who state that it was`first recorded by Petrie who drew it in 1837. Petrie recorded that stones nos. 1, 2, and 3 had been found `in the church' ... This may, however, merely indicate that they were found around the church site, as seems to have been the case with Monaincha 1 [MONAI/1]. Monaicha 2 [this stone] was broken before 1853 when the portion still in existence was exhibited at the Great Exhibition by the Royal Irish Academy ... It may by then have been presented to the Academy by a Mr Birch and certainly had been so by 1857 ... This portion of the stone was transferred with the rest of the Academy collection to the NMI in 1890. The portion of the stone now lost is known only from Petrie's account and drawing' (Okasha & Forsyth 2001, 201-02). Earliest reference noted in Macalister is JRSAI 1852. The slab measures 0.59 x 1.56 x 0.07 (Okasha & Forsyth 2001). A fragment of the slab is stored in the National Museum of Ireland (Cat: reg. no. W 17) while the rest of the slab is lost. According to Okasha & Forsyth, 'The stone is complete except for the right-hand edge which is now broken, the break coming in the middle of the second letter D. Petrie's drawing shows the slab complete and his scale drawing indicates that the stone was then about 156 cm in width. This indicates that a sizeable piece of the stone is now lost' (Okasha & Forsyth 2001, 202). The inscription on the slab reads 'O~R~DOBRAN [D][UB]' [ OROIT DO BRANDUB] which translates as 'A prayer for Bran the black' (Okasha & Forsyth 2001, 202).

Listed as Monaincha 3 by Okasha & Forsyth (Okasha & Forsyth 2001, 204). According to Okasha & Forsyth this slab was`first recorded by Petrie who made a drawing of it ... Petrie's drawing is initialled but not dated, but it must pre-date his death in 1866. ... Monaincha 3 [this stone] was lost before 1878' (Okasha & Forsyth 2001, 204). This slab is now lost but originally measured 0.78m x 0.48m x 0.0 (Okasha & Forsyth 2001, 204). The`[published drawing] shows what appears to be a semi-circular tenon projecting from one of the narrow sides of the stone: the stone is thus most readily explained as a component of a larger structure, for example the tenoned arm of a free-standing cross' (Okasha & Forsyth 2001, 204). According to Petrie `The design upon this stone appears however to belong to a later period than the twelfth century' (Petrie 1878, 37). Macalister descriubed the slab as a`Stone apparently bearing a heart-shaped figure laid upon a saltire. Inscribed below the heart' (Macalister 1949, 102). The inscription reads O~R~ARDO[.][--] which can be expanded to read OROIT AR DO[MNALL] or perhaps OROIT AR DO[NNAN] (Okasha & Forsyth 2001, 205).

A townland is the smallest land division of Ireland, and the unit of a rural address; old registers such as the 1901 and 1911 censuses file it under its civil parish and barony.

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
