“When the Danes had well established themselves in Ireland they kept a large fleet of boats on Lough Derg.”
(ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)its name from the many fights it experienced.
Terryglass was a favourite landing place of the Connaught Danes when they intended carrying out raids in North Tipperary. When Danish raids were carried out on the famous Roscrea fairs the plunderers landed from their boards near Terryglass Castle. The people used light large bonfires to warn the unsuspecting fair people and through such help the attackers were beaten off and defeated.
At the present day the field can be pointed out showing the direction the plunderes took after leaving their boats. This field lies between the townsland of Oldcourt and Slevoyre.
In one of their plundering visits the Danes burnt to ashes Terryglass monastery. They found the abbot praying at the altar steps when they entered the little church and without delay they murdered him.
