    I found this regarding Miler Magrath's epitaph- Miler Magrath
    Patrick the glory of our isle and gown
    First a bishop in the see of down
    I wish that I succeeded him in place
    As bishop had an equal grace
    I served thee England fifty years in jars
    And pleased thy princes in the midst of wars
    Here where I'm placed I'm not and thus the case is
    I'm not in both yet am in both the places

    What a magnificent visit. Thank you Sure and GV♥️ I was taught in grade and high school by the Sister of Mercy and how proud they were to be an Irish order founded in Dublin by Catherine McAuley. St Patrick’s Day was the biggest feast day of the year. Those grounds are not only historic but so holy. Thanks again for the glorious day and blue skies🦋

    Holey Dooley Sue! Even in its' ruined state the cathedral is still magnificent. I noticed names above the figures on that chest tomb inside, with an S before each name, possibly Saints? How on earth did the masons manage to create such ornate and beautiful stonework back then? It boggles the mind. That blown up High Cross was a sad sight, imagine the effort it would take to put it back up! Gawd....Loved this outing with you both. Thank you. Deb of Oz XXX

    As a handspinner, I was fascinated by the coat of arms at 17:43 - the lower left quadrant looks a lot like a hand holding a top whorl spindle! Not sure that is actually what it is, but I've never seen that on a coat of arms before.

      Hi Timothy, we had hoped to go to Hore Abbey but the heat and hay-fever won lol. They are not allowed to clean stones as far as I know it's down to family and if no family they have to be able to prove it etc it's a hard one to get done. Not sure about the highcross, it's sitting there now over 40 years, so I doubt anything will ever be done
