About Tipperary

Tipperary (/ˌtɪpəˈrɛəri/; Irish: Tiobraid Árann) is a town and a civil parish in South Tipperary, Ireland. Its population was 4,415 at the 2006 census. It is also an ecclesiastical parish in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Cashel and Emly, and is in the historical barony of Clanwilliam. The town gave its name to County Tipperary. A theme to which my poor husband has become quite accustomed is "we have to go to _____ because I read about it in a book." Overall, it's worked out fairly well and we've seen some very interesting places. Located in the Tipperary town of Cahir, this castle is one of the best preserved in Ireland. The keep, defensive walls and the tower are still quite intact and visitors may fully explore these. Guided tours are available along with an audio-visual presentation. This impressive castle is situated on a rocky island in RIVER SUIR and is one of the largest and BEST PRESERVED castles in Ireland.CAHIR, the name of the surrounding town, derives its name from the Irish word CATHAIR, meaning STONE FORT. The great hall was largely rebuilt in the 19th Century, although the external (west) wall appears to be part of the 13th Century structure with window embrasures of the same date.Restorations works were carried out throughout the CASTLE in the 1840s and although not well documented the 19th Century. although it was already raining.Looking back in my travelreport and scanning the photos, this seems to have been the Ireland holiday with the most rainy days & nights. The Swiss Cottage was built around 1810 and was the rural residence of the Butler's who used the cottage as a country lodge and for entertainment purposes.
