Stories, Songs and Ballads of '98
“The Irish were camping on the top of a hill near Tubberneering.”
256ii.
The Irish men were camping on the top of a hill near Tubberneering. The English were marching from the opposite direction of Carnew and another General from the opposite direction. They got word that the army led by Lord Wallpole was near at hand. They then marched out to meet them. They met Wallpoles army and defeated it by killing Wallpole first. They defeated the other generals army and the general fled to Tullow.Written by : Liam Devereux
