- When Cromwell was in Ireland he was supposed to pass through Inistioge. At that time the monks lived in the Old Castle at Inistioge and when Cromwell and his soldiers were passing through the village, when he saw the Castle, he and his soldiers went into it..
The monks had joybell in the Castle and while Cromwell was going around the yard, some of the monks got joybell out and buried them in the street. There was a house built on the place where they were buried, but there is no house there now, only one wall left. - You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
