• TN020-031 Bridge
  Description

  A bridge is mentioned in the Civil Survey of Co. Tipperary, 1654-6 (Simington 1934, vol. 2, 279). There is now a disused road bridge (Wth 5.1m; L 37.8m; wall T 0.45m) over the Nenagh River located beside the modern bridge where the approach road to Nenagh town has been straightened. The disused bridge consists of four arches of roughly cut voussoirs set on edge. The two central arches are semicircular with a lower segmental arch flanking either side. Two cutstone pointed breakwaters are visible on the upstream side with evidence that one of the central arches has been altered by the heightening of its arch. There is evidence of lime rendering and shuttering on the underside of the vault along with the widening of the bridge on the downstream side by 1.9m. The bridge was originally c. 3.8m in width. The parapet walls (wall T 0.4-0.45m; H 1m) were constructed with roughly coursed limestone rubble capped by crude limestone blocks which in places is capped by a modern concrete addition.

• TN020-037 Historic town
  Description

  Situated on a low rise of ground with good views in all directions. The Anglo-Norman town at Nenagh was founded between 1200 and 1220 by Theobald Walter, the first Butler of Ormond (Gleeson and Leask 1936, 248). There was possibly an earlier settlement here as there are references to 'Aenach thete', which appears to be Nenagh, being burned during raids in 994 and 1056 (Annals of the Four Masters). An inquisition dated 1299 concerning the alteration of a roadway near the town concluded 'that it would not damage any but those who dwell in Theobalds Town of the Nanagh in the street below the castle to the east viz. Robert, son of David and his neighbours dwelling in that street' (CJR, vol. 1, 234). In 1323 the village of the Nanagh accounts for 641 for remitting the account of murage (PRI rep. DK 42nd, 42). In 1305 and 1338 burgesses are mentioned in state papers (CJR, vol. 2, 108; CIPM, vol. 8, 121). The town appears to have suffered in the fourteenth century: first in 1316 Robert Bruce's army wasted the manor of Nenagh but left the castle and settlement intact (Gleeson and Leask 1936, 250), then in 1348 the town was burnt by the O'Kennedys (Prendergast 1851, 392). At the end of this troublesome century, in 1392, the Butlers bought Kilkenny Castle and transferred their chief residence from Nenagh to there (ibid., 393-4). There is a fifteenth-century reference which mentions that the 'reeve and community [were] summoned to seneschal's court' in 1432 (Martin 1981, 47). The town possesses a thirteenth-century castle with curtain wall and gatehouse (TN020-037001) and a Franciscan friary (TN020-037002). Although there is no surviving evidence of town walls (TN020-037006) around Nenagh many historians and archaeologists believe that medieval Nenagh was walled (Bradley 1985, 50-52). In 1287 it is recorded that Walter de la Hyde did 'repairs of roofs and in building a house below the gate; in repairing and roofing other towers and houses; in rebuilding a bridge, gate and palisades which were thrown down by a storm' (Gleeson and Leask 1936, 249). A more substantial fortification may have been built in the fourteenth century as murage was being collected in 1322-3 and 1344-5 (Bradley 1985, 2). Two gates, Thomond Gate at Connolly Street on the west side of the town and the unlocated Sparragibba, were referred to in the seventeenth century (Bradley 1985, 50; Thomas 1992, vol. 2, 173; Grace 1993, 115). According to Sheehan (1949, 8), Sparragibba was located at River Lane, in the angle between Kenyon Street and Connolly Street. In the Civil Survey (1654-6) Thomond gate is described as being located on the W side of Nenagh town (Simington 1934, vol. 2, 211) and there is a reference to the 'Walls' southwestward of Nenagh (ibid., 278). According to the Civil Survey the road from Ballycahill led to 'a gate on the walls of Nenagh called Sparragibba bounded on the southeast wth the lands of Tyone' (ibid., 295). The town is described as containing 'sixty cottages & thatcht houses lately built' (ibid., 295). A parish church (TN020-037007), supposedly of seventeenth-century date but possibly overlying an earlier structure, was located on Kenyon Street, a site now occupied by the remains of an eighteenth-century church. A seventeenth-century market-house (TN020-037006) was demolished in 1812 - it measured in length 12m along Pearse St. and 10m along Kenyon St. (Sheehan 1949, 3). In 1696 a 'Session House and Goal were built' on Pearse Street (Sadlier 1943, 131-54) but this court and jail (TN020-037005) have since been replaced by later building. Two burials (YN020-131) were revealed prior to a development south of Saint Conlan's Road in 2000 (Collins and Lynch 2000). These consisted of adult male inhumations, in close proximity, the better preserved skeleton was orientated almost east-west which suggests a Christian burial (ibid.). There were no accompanying grave-goods (ibid.). In 2001 archaeological testing by Brian Hodkinson for a shop development in Silver Street revealed no archaeological features (Bennett 2003, 385). Testing was carried out under licence no. 01E0890. In 2000 archaeological monitoring by Kenneth Wiggins of a supermarket development on Thomas Mc Donagh Street revealed no archaeological features. Carried out under licence No. 00E0360 (Bennett 2002, 323). The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary.

• TN020-037001 Castle - Anglo-Norman masonry castle
  Description

  National Monument No. 513. Situated on flat ground at the N end of Nenagh town, Nenagh castle was the chief residence of Theobald Walter and served as the main seat of the Butler family until the second half of the fourteenth century. It was in the hands of the Mac Ibrien family in the fifteenth century and returned to Butler ownership in 1533 under Piers Butler, Earl of Ossory (Gleeson and Leask 1936, 254-5). Dated by Leask to the period 1200-1220 based on the use of chevron and [the position of the keep] (its position) in relation to the curtain wall (ibid., 268-9). In 1332 the 'prisoners took the castle of Nennogh and the gates there was burned; which was recovered again and the prisoners kept' (Cal. Carew MSS, 159). In the extent of Nenagh, the castle in 1338 is described as 'A castle surrounded with five towers, a hall, a house beyond the gate, a kitchen with stone walls roofed with shingles' (Cal. inq. post mortem vol. 8, no. 184). The castle is described in the Civil Survey 1654-6 as a 'Castle lately repayred by Collonell Abbott to this mannor apptaineth a court leet and a courte Barron with all the rights, privileges & imunities beloning to a manor', with the Countess of Ormond being listed as the proprietor in 1640 (Simington 1934, vol. 2, 295). After the Williamite wars, Nenagh castle was one of a number of castles to be dismantled as a precaution against their use in any future disorders (Gleeson and Leask 1936, 258). In the eighteenth century Solomon Newsome tried to blow up the castle which left a large breach now visible in the N wall at ground-floor level (ibid., 259). This is an impressive thirteenth-century castle, five-sided in plan, consisting of a circular keep (int. diam. 7.3m; wall T. 5m) at the N angle, flanking towers at the E and W angles, a large twin-towered gatehouse to the S and a curtain wall (T 2.7m) all around. There are no visible remains of the W tower while only fragmentary remains survive of the flanking tower on the E side. There may have been a postern gate or sallyport immediately SW of the E tower as there is the trace of a springing arch of a gateway (Gleeson and Leask 1936, 264). Of the curtain wall only a short stretch survives where it adjoins the SE face of the keep while only the tie stones survive on the W face. The keep itself was constructed with uncoursed rubble limestone with base-batter and stands four storeys high above which there is a Victorian addition from the latter half of the nineteenth century (ibid., 259). The main first-floor entrance at SE consists of of a round-headed doorway (now blocked up) situated between the remaining section of curtain wall (containing a possible garderobe chute) and a short stretch of walling protruding from the keep slightly to the W of the blocked-up doorway. This arrangement of the curtain wall with garderobe and a second wall to the W suggests that the doorway may have been protected by a stone fore-building. The main entrance leads into a lobby area from which the upper floors could be accessed via the spiral stairs contained within the thickness of the wall at S. Access to the ground floor was from the first-floor hall either by a wooden stairs or by a trapdoor in the floor. The ground floor is featureless and has an eighteenth-century breach in the wall at N (ibid., 259). The first floor is lit by two long plunging arrowloops with sandstone surrounds set into deep wide round-arched embrasures at N and S. The second floor appears to have been the main public hall of the castle and is entered through a chevron-decorated arch which was probably lit by a sandstone pointed window set into the wall in a similar fashion to the surviving NW window at third-floor level. Other features of the second floor include a destroyed fireplace at W which had a sloping stone fire-hood in a manner similar to Roscrea castle (TN012-010007-). Beside the fireplace to the N there is a round-arched window embrasure. A doorway in the W splay of this window leads to an external round-arched doorway from which the wall-walk of the curtain wall was accessed. The hall was lit by long narrow plunging arrowloops set into large deep round-arched embrasures set into the wall at NE, E and S. Double corbels set opposite each other provided support for a decorative timber ceiling. The third storey was probably the private residential hall of the lord. It has a partially destroyed fireplace at W with engaged sandstone columns and decorated capitals which supported a sloping stone fire-hood. Lighting was provided by five large windows. The rear arch of the SW window embrasure, which also acts as the entrance lobby, is decorated with a triple roll sandstone moulding while the other window embrasures are flat-headed, segmental and shouldered. The shouldered or Caernarvon arch is generally dated to the end of the thirteenth century and may be part of the refurbishment of the castle during this period (Gleeson and Leask 1936, 249). The W splay of the NW window embrasure contains a doorway which gives access to a box machicolation which helped protect the curtain wall where it joins onto the keep. The pointed N window is of sandstone and is not flush with the external face of the wall; it is set into a segmental-pointed embrasure. The gatehouse (ext. dims. 22.8m E-W; 12.5m N-S) at the S consists of a two-storey central rectangular block with two D-shaped flanking towers of which only the E tower survives. Recent excavations indicate that the gatehouse complex was constructed in two phases with a fine two-storey hall added to the rear of the twin-towered gatehouse in the latter half of the thirteenth century (Hodkinson 1999, 162-82). This two-storey hall had rib vaulting over the ground floor supported by a series of centrally placed pillars (ibid., 165). The first floor was lit by large pointed sandstone windows with the first-floor entrance in the N wall located off-centre to the E (ibid., 164-5). The gatehouse was entered through a large round-headed archway with evidence of a portcullis slot and was accessed by a drawbridge, the two-slot pit of which was unearthed during the recent excavations (ibid., 163-4). The excavation revealed that the ground floor entrance to the W flanking tower is concealed behind blocking. The ground floor chambers of the hall were divided by a central passage, possibly barrel vaulted (ibid., 165). A coin, minted between 1205 and 1218, was discovered in the base of the foundation of the gatehouse which suggests that it was built during the minority of Theobold II, who succeeded Theobold I (ibid., 178). No evidence of an external moat was uncovered although it is very likely that the castle was externally defended by a moat.

In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.

• TN020-037002 Religious house - Franciscan friars
  Description

  Situated on flat ground in the SE sector of the town of Nenagh with a thirteenth-century castle (TN020-0370001) to the NW and a church site (TN020-037007) to the S. A Franciscan friary possibly founded around the year 1250 by Donogh O'Kennedy, bishop of Killaloe, who died in 1252 (Gwynn and Hadcock 1970, 256-7). Nenagh friary was the chief house of the Irish friars and a principal house of one of the five subdivisions of the Franciscans in Ireland (Gleeson 1943a, 157). A provincial synod of the order was held in Nenagh on the feast of St Francis in 1344 (ibid., 160). The friary was destroyed and the monks driven out during the reign of Queen Elizabeth (Gwynn and Hadcock 1970, 257). The friary became observant in 1632 and was suppressed during the Cromwellian period (Gleeson 1915, vol. 1, 150). The surviving building consists of a simple undivided rectangular church (ext. dims. 10m N-S; 45.3m E-W; wall T 1.18m) built with roughly coursed limestone rubble with sandstone surrounds used for its architectural features. The OS Letters (O'Flanagan 1930, vol. 3, 100-101) mention that attached to the S wall of the E end of the friary there was 'a small building called the Sacristy, of which portions of the west and south walls remain, as also a fragment of the east wall attached to the wall of the church. This little building measured thirty three feet nine inches [10.3m] from north to south and twelve feet four inches [3.75m] from east to west'. There are fifteen sandstone lancet windows off-centre to the E on the N wall, though a further lancet is probably blocked up as the OS Letters (ibid.) mention sixteen windows, with three tall lancet windows in the E gable of graduating height with a small ope in the apex of the gable. A sandstone doorway off-centre to the E on the S wall may have led into a sacristy. The original W doorway was remodelled around the fifteenth century by the insertion of a limestone arch and orders. The bellcote on the apex of the W gable appears to be contemporary with the doorway and a vine scroll decorated finial and carved head is inserted into it. Off-centre to the W on the S wall there is a single surviving capital of an engaged column which would have supported a groin-vaulted roof. The capital is decorated with dogtooth ornament typical of the thirteenth century. There is evidence of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century graveslabs in the form of floriated graveslabs in church interior along with nineteenth- and twentieth-century headstones. The OS Letters (ibid., 101) describe 'three fragments of a monumental stone, having raised on it the figure of a warrior in armour…composed of limestone' which was located near the NE inner corner. This tombstone is no longer visible. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary.

• TN020-037006 Town defences
  Description

  Situated on a low rise of ground with good views in all directions. The Anglo-Norman town at Nenagh was founded between 1200 and 1220 by Theobald Walter, the first Butler of Ormond (Gleeson and Leask 1936, 248). There was possibly an earlier settlement here as there are references to 'Aenach thete', which appears to be Nenagh, being burned during raids in 994 and 1056 (Annals of the Four Masters). An inquisition dated 1299 concerning the alteration of a roadway near the town concluded 'that it would not damage any but those who dwell in Theobalds Town of the Nanagh in the street below the castle to the east viz. Robert, son of David and his neighbours dwelling in that street' (CJR, vol. 1, 234). In 1323 the village of the Nanagh accounts for 641 for remitting the account of murage (PRI rep. DK 42nd, 42). In 1305 and 1338 burgesses are mentioned in state papers (CJR, vol. 2, 108; CIPM, vol. 8, 121). The town appears to have suffered in the fourteenth century: first in 1316 Robert Bruce's army wasted the manor of Nenagh but left the castle and settlement intact (Gleeson and Leask 1936, 250), then in 1348 the town was burnt by the O'Kennedys (Prendergast 1851, 392). At the end of this troublesome century, in 1392, the Butlers bought Kilkenny Castle and transferred their chief residence from Nenagh to there (ibid., 393-4). There is a fifteenth-century reference which mentions that the 'reeve and community [were] summoned to seneschal's court' in 1432 (Martin 1981, 47). The town possesses a thirteenth-century castle with curtain wall and gatehouse (TNO20-037001) and a Franciscan friary (TN020-037002). Although there is no surviving evidence of town walls around Nenagh many historians and archaeologists believe that medieval Nenagh was walled (Bradley 1985, 50-52). In 1287 it is recorded that Walter de la Hyde did 'repairs of roofs and in building a house below the gate; in repairing and roofing other towers and houses; in rebuilding a bridge, gate and palisades which were thrown down by a storm' (Gleeson and Leask 1936, 249). A more substantial fortification may have been built in the fourteenth century as murage was being collected in 1322-3 and 1344-5 (Bradley 1985, 2). Two gates, Thomond Gate at Connolly Street on the west side of the town and the unlocated Sparragibba, were referred to in the seventeenth century (Bradley 1985, 50; Thomas 1992, vol. 2, 173; Grace 1993, 115). According to Sheehan (1949, 8), Sparragibba was located at River Lane, in the angle between Kenyon Street and Connolly Street. In the Civil Survey (1654-6) Thomond gate is described as being located on the W side of Nenagh town (Simington 1934, vol. 2, 211) and there is a reference to the 'Walls' southwestward of Nenagh (ibid., 278). According to the Civil Survey the road from Ballycahill led to 'a gate on the walls of Nenagh called Sparragibba bounded on the southeast wth the lands of Tyone' (ibid., 295). The town is described as containing 'sixty cottages & thatcht houses lately built' (ibid., 295). The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary.

  Description

  Situated on flat ground in the SE sector of the town of Nenagh with a thirteenth-century castle (TN020-0370001) to the NW and a church site (TN020-037007) to the S. A Franciscan friary possibly founded around the year 1250 by Donogh O'Kennedy, bishop of Killaloe, who died in 1252 (Gwynn and Hadcock 1970, 256-7). Nenagh friary was the chief house of the Irish friars and a principal house of one of the five subdivisions of the Franciscans in Ireland (Gleeson 1943a, 157). A provincial synod of the order was held in Nenagh on the feast of St Francis in 1344 (ibid., 160). The friary was destroyed and the monks driven out during the reign of Queen Elizabeth (Gwynn and Hadcock 1970, 257). The friary became observant in 1632 and was suppressed during the Cromwellian period (Gleeson 1915, vol. 1, 150). The OS Letters (ibid., 101) describe 'three fragments of a monumental stone, having raised on it the figure of a warrior in armour…composed of limestone' which was located near the NE inner corner. This tombstone is no longer visible inside the Franciscan Friary (TN020-037002). Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien. Date of upload: 22 September 2008
