Clones Town, County Monaghan, Ireland - Ireland Attractions
Clones Town County, Monaghan, Ireland - Doesn't it feel good to be back home? It can be amazing to bring back the memories from our childhood - sure we remember things every now and again, but you cannot beat actually walking the streets where you grew up for memories ( good and bad! to come flooding back ). Hence off to Clones, County Monaghan, Ireland, the town where I grew up.
For the few who do not know - Clones is a small town in western County Monaghan, Ireland. The Clones area was part of the Border Region which was earmarked for economic development by the Irish Government due to the current below average economic growth in the area. County Monaghan is on the border with County Fermanagh in Northern Ireland which brings its own advantages and challenges.
Walking through the town and seeing the old places which are still standing there, just about! :-)
During our walk of the town we came across a picture from 1843 for the Market House and it was amazing to see the buildings from the photo are still standing around the Diamond. Amazing.
On the Diamond we have the imposing buildings such as Ulster Bank - which sadly closed in 2016....to all the pubs, post office, credit union and more.
Checking out the tourist map, trying to decide in which direction we should go, we finally managed to go down to the Wee Abbey, just off the Diamond - a great stop for history buffs. The most imposing feature on the Diamond is the Celtic High Cross. Down the road towards Cavan, to the right - is the path to the Motte and Bailey Fort, a piece of ground showing where an old fort used to stand with an amazing view across the local area. Plenty of history here!!
Towards the bottom of Fermanagh Street is the Butter Yard and the relatively new statue of the children playing leapfrog. Pretty Nice!
Close to the Round Tower is the Ionad Cassandra Hand Centre where they used to make lace and was built in 1847, coming again to the Wee Abbey. Across the road from the Lace centre is the Round Tower and graveyard.
There are other towns which one could visit around the North of Ireland, such as Letterkenny in county Donegal ( there is also Bushmills Town which is found on the north coast of Ireland ( and you could visit Newcastle Co. Down which is a lovely place to go to if you like beaches! :-) (
Would love if you shared this video on your social media :-) Thank you!!
A Walk Around Clones on a Winter Day - County Monaghan
We had a walk around Clones - checking out the Diamond, Round Tower, Fermanagh Street, Clones Abbey, The Butteryard beside the Creighton Hotel. Enjoying the history that is in every corner of the city...
Clones is known to be a small town that is located in western county Monaghan in Ireland. Clones also shares a border with county Fermanagh in Northern Ireland and this has been considered a reason for the economic status and problems that it went through since 1921 because the creation of the Irish border banned its access to a large part of its economic hinterland for many years.
We believe that Clones is a historic place since history fills it in every single corner one will get the chance to move across, although when it comes to the landmarks which one could visit, they might end up not being much and the rest will be about walking through the old streets and enjoying the old buildings, which was also part of the trip we have been on.
Through the tour that we have made in Clones, county Monaghan, we visited the Round Tower which is considered one of the most famous landmarks there. The Round Tower was built from sandstone and is believed to date back to the 10th century, which we are not totally sure of. This tower stood at almost 23 meters height including the conical cap which is missing at this point. The Round Tower has four storeys including the bell storey with a single window on each one of them except for the bell storey which had the usual four windows; one on each cardinal point on the compass. Just beside the tower, you will find some graves that let people sometimes refer to the place as the Clones Round Tower graveyard.
In addition to the Round Tower, we have also been to the Celtic Cross; the Celtic Cross which is standing on the Diamond also dates back to the 10th century and is made from sandstone as well. This cross is considered a combination of two separate crosses that mix the head of one and the shaft of another, and it reaches a height of 4.57 meters. The Celtic Cross in Clones is one of the famous attractions in the place for the history it carries since it is believed to be among the remains of a monastery founded in Clones by St. Tighernach in the sixth century. The faces of the shaft are not plain or free but they carry different pictures that are related to the biblical scenes, making it more interesting for those seeing it for the first time to come closer and inspect it all by themselves.
If you are visiting Clones and you are still searching for other significant places and spots to check in the place then there is also St. Tiernach's Grave, which was another place that we got to pass by and discover in real during our trip.
It is always different and exciting to get to experience a new place for the first time and discover all those different historical places which are found in it - just like what we have done while visiting Clones even though it wasn't the first time for us there, yet we got to see some places for the first time.
While walking through the streets of Clones, in addition to those old building and streets, you might also come across some sculptures, such as the one for the kids playing which we have passed by, and that is the reason why we always believe that walking through the streets of a new place that you are visiting for the first time might always give you the chance to see things that you did not have in the place, making the whole thing much more interesting.
If you are going to stay at Clones for any reason and want something else to do, you could enjoy visiting county Fermanagh, since it shares its border, and check some of the things that it could offer you as well. From those places which we have already been to and which we could recommend, there is the Enniskillen Castle Museum ( the Pollnagollum Cave in Enniskillen as well ( you might also visit a place that gives you the chance to enjoy Lough Erne ( check the Headhunters Barber Shop and Railway Museum ( or else visit Blakes of the Hollow pub in order to check the fourth door in Game of Thrones movie series if you happen to be a fan (
Sometimes the place we tend to visit might not carry much for us to see and explore, but we also believe that the more we search and walk through the streets, the more we will find and discover, and that is exactly the tip we want to give to all those travelers out there: never stop walking through the streets and you will never stop discovering new things.
Have you ever visited Clones in county Monaghan before to check any of these historical places we have been to and shared?

Clones Town (Updated) - A Visit Through The Years
Greetings to all from Clones Town
(The original Clones Video with 10K views disappeared from YouTube)
I have taken the opportunity to update the video a little bit and have uploaded it again. It now includes a short segment of the 1964 Fleadh Ceol. It is a very grainy piece of film and of poor quality, but I think it is worthwhile seeing in any event. This was taken from a short BBC film.
I also managed to include a few segments of film of the GNR Trains coming into Clones Train Station. I would love to find more of this film as I think it's a very important part of our heritage)
I hope this video appeals to everyone who lives in Clones, anyone who has ever lived in Clones, and to all it family decendents researching their roots. Clones is a town of which we should all be proud.
In compiling this video I could not help but be humbled by thoughts of our ancestors walking the same streets, past the same buildings, worshipping in the same churches and hearing the exact same bells of the Sacred Heart Church which are on the soundtrack of this video.. Some of these old photographs go back to the late 1800s' (not photographed by me!)
It is often said that a town is only as good as it's people. Clones Town has great People. Despite all the adversity visited on Clones Town over the years, it's people have always bounced back and come through with it's tremendous community spirit.
One of the biggest blows ever suffered by Clones (in living memory) was undoubtably the closure of the Great Northern Railway in 1957. It's effect at the time is impossible to put into words. Growing up in Clones during the sixties, it's closure was constantly bemoaned by everybody. Of course the town also had to deal with the woes brought on by the Troubles and the unavoidable economic difficulties of being a border town.
Clones Town has always punched above it's weight with it's number of well known sportsmen, authors, playwrights, musicians and composers.

History
Clones was the site of a monastic settlement in the kingdom of Dartraige Con-innsi, originally founded by Tigernach (anglicised Tierney) in the 6th century, until the dissolution of the monasteries by Henry VIII. St. Tigernach or Tierney's abbey, built in the early 6th century was dedicated to St. Peter and St. Paul. Tigernach later became Bishop of Clogher and removed that see to Clones, where he died of the plague in 550. The abbot was the Primus Abbas, or first mitred abbot of Ireland. The ruins of a 12th century abbey building can still be found in the town, along with a sarcophagus reputed to have been built to house the remains of Saint Tighearnach, and a 9th century round tower and high cross.
Transport
The town was the site of a major junction on the Great Northern Railway during the 19th and early 20th centuries, where routes from Enniskillen, Armagh, Cavan, and Dundalk converged. This formed the focal point of the railway network in what is now the border area between the Republic and Northern Ireland. The railways were finally closed after unilateral closure of the Northern Ireland route sections by the Northern Authorities and the Ulster Transport Authority (see History of rail transport in Ireland). Clones railway station was opened on 26 June 1858, closed for passenger traffic on 14 October 1957, and finally closed altogether on 1 January 1960.

10-year-old Jarly Og Burns in Clones
'Hopefully I'll go on to play for Armagh some day, just for now I’m happy and excited for the next step for me’, says 10-year-old Jarly Og Burns after playing in a half-time game in Clones at the 2009 Ulster SFC game between Tyrone and Armagh.
Interviewed with two cousins and his Uncle, Finbar Burns, Jarly Og said he wanted to go on to be just like his Dad, Jarlath Burns. ‘I just really want to be like him because he was a great midfielder’.
Lake Muckno - County Monaghan - Things to Do in Monaghan
Yes, we love parks, lakes, and everything else that is related to nature, especially those places which we get the chance to walk through and explore the different routes which they might carry for us - just like Lake Muckno and the different paths we got the chance to choose from.
Lake Muckno - which is also known as Lough Muckno in the Irish language - is a freshwater lake in the northeast of Ireland, which is located in county Monaghan beside the town of Castleblayney - where other attractions are located as well.
The main purpose behind the trip was to have a walk by Lake Muckno and see this freshwater, but in order not to get easily bored and not to make it a trip that is not so much welcomed by the kids, we had to get inside the park and have a walk of trail exploration inside there - that's why we decided to go through the black island walk in Muckno Peace Park - where there was the nature trail that the kids got excited about.
I have already mentioned above that Lake Muckno lies beside the town of Castleblayney and that is one reason why lots of people consider it located in it. Actually, Lough Muckno is considered the largest lake in Castleblayney.
There is a history behind Muckno Peace Park that is located in Castleblayney; it was originally part of the estate family Balyney after which the town of Castleblayney is named before it was given to Henry Thomas Hope who the Castle Hope was named after - that castle which we witnessed with the kids from far away while exploring the park and walking through the trail we have chosen to take.
Following the trail with the kids, there were really beautiful scenes which we came across - especially the castle we have seen on the other side - and the most interesting thing about the walk was choosing a path or trail to follow - and telling the kids that we are lost in the middle of it all :-) - before we managed to reach the end point or the place where we have started the walk once again.
County Monaghan is a county in Ireland that is part of the Border Region and is in the province of Ulster. Lake Muckno is one of the different places of nature that are located in county Monaghan but there are also some other destinations that tourists could head for - even Irish people who might have never been to these places will have some good and fresh time there.
From the different places that one could go to and visit, there is County Monaghan Museum, Patrick Kavanagh centre, the Celtic High Cross, St. Tiernach's Grave, the Clones Round Tower ( the Inniskeen Round Tower, and different other places which one could get the chance to discover and know more about.
Lough Muckno Leisure Park is one of the different parks that one could visit in county Monaghan and enjoy a little bit of nature and have a walk through it with the rest of the family, but there are other ones which one could visit as well and which include the Billy Fox Memorial Park in Latton, Dartrey Forest in Rockcorry, as well as Rossmore Forest Park; so one could always choose between different parks in order to enjoy a walk through nature.
There are actually a lot of adventures done in this area which might be more held for school students and which include camps, riding boats, as well as having a walk in the park in general. We actually went for a little bit of adventure with the kids by just following the trail and enjoying the view of the lake and its freshwater, but unfortunately we didn't get the chance to ride a boat or camp there.
We have been through different experiences with the parks in Ireland and Northern Ireland such as visiting the Lough Muckno Park and which is all about the walks there as well as enjoying the view of nature and being close to the water. From those other experiences in parks which we have been to, we visited Sir Thomas and Lady Dickson Park in Belfast ( we have also visited the Colin Glen Park in Belfast where the kids enjoyed following the Gruffalo Trail ( we have also been to the Phoenix Park in Dublin ( we went to the Tollymore Forest Park in Newcastle ( - there are actually different parks in Ireland and Northern Ireland which one could visit and enjoy with the rest of the family, alone, or even with some friends.
We truly enjoyed our experience in Lake Muckno Park and we might come back for it if we want to have a walk around. Share with us your experience if you have been to the Lake Muckno before and what you have done there, and if you haven't ever been there, did our video excite you and get you more interested about the place? Tell us more about your experience or your plans.

The Cross of Cong (1123) Augustinian Friary at Cong, Co Mayo Ireland
The Cross of Cong was made in 1123 to encase a fragment of the True Cross that was brought to Ireland and displayed in different places around the country. The cross is so-called because it was kept in the Augustinian Friary at Cong, county Mayo, for centuries.
The Cross of Cong represents the conclusion of a long tradition of distinctively Irish church metalwork. It is decorated in an impressive range of styles and can be considered to be one of the greatest treasures of the era.
It was made to enshrine a relic of the True Cross, known from written sources to have been acquired in AD 1122 by Toirrdelbach Ua Conchobair (Turlough O’Conor), High King of Ireland. The cross was designed for processional use, although it may have been mostly used as an altar cross. It has an oak core which is covered by plates of cast bronze. A large polished rock crystal on the front of the cross at the junction of the arms and shaft was intended to protect the relic, which does not survive. The rock crystal is set in a conical mount surrounded by a flange decorated with gold filigree, niello and blue and white glass bosses. The bronze plates on the surfaces of the cross are cast openwork and are decorated with ribbon-shaped intertwined animals in the Scandinavian-derived Urnes style.
The inscription on the sides of the cross identifies Toirrdelbach Ua Conchobair as the patron and Máel Ísú mac Bratáin Uí Echach as the craftsman. Two prominent churchmen are also mentioned. The inscription, which is in Irish, is framed by two identical lines in Latin that translate as ‘by this cross is covered the cross on which the creator of the world suffered’.
The Cross of Cong consists of an oak core that is encased in sheet brass and cast decorative brass plates
The cross is elaborately decorated with gold filigree, gilding, silver sheeting, niello and silver inlay, and glass and enamel settings. At its centre is a large piece of rock crystal. The fragment of the True Cross would have been housed under this, and it would have been visible through it. The fragment has long been lost.
The cross is 760 mm high, 480 mm wide and 35 mm in thickness.
The Cross of Cong is an exquisite work of art
It is one of the greatest expressions of Irish craftsmanship in the twelfth century. The cross is also one of the great works of European art of this time.
The ornamentation on the Cross is the culmination of the earlier “celtic” style of decoration that graced the great treasures of the eighth and ninth centuries, but with the added enrichment of the incorporation of Viking styles of the eleventh and twelfth centuries.
New discoveries about the Cross of Cong
When the Cross of Cong was being prepared to travel to the Museum of Country Life at Turlough Park, significant new discoveries were made:
Evidence of several previous investigations has been found – most recently in the 1960s.
Rather than being made of sheet bronze, as was previously thought, we now know that it was made of sheets of brass and cast brass.
The wooden cross that is the core of the Cross of Cong is made of oak; it is fractured just below the crossing of the two members and this is what causes the structural weakness in the Cross of Cong.
Most significantly, when the rock crystal and its mount at the centre of the cross were removed, another cross was found incised on the oak core of the Cross of Cong – of a type we now call the cross of Lorraine – and which is a symbol of the True Cross. This was carved at the time of the making of the cross. See image below.
There are indications that there was an earlier circular container underneath the rock crystal, and that this may have contained the fragment of the True Cross.

Trip to Monaghan Town, Hillgrove Hotel & Castle Leslie
Monaghan is a Northern County in Ireland (some do ask!) :-) And no, it is not in Northern Ireland (politically) but is geographically. It sits on the border with the North. A small town - great for nights out and food!
County Monaghan is part of the Border Region and is in the province of Ulster and it is named after its county town Monaghan. After the 20th century Irish War of Independence and the signing of the Anglo-Irish Treaty, Monaghan was one of the three Ulster counties to join the Irish Free state rather than Northern Ireland - which is the reason why it is not considered in Northern Ireland politically but will be always seen as part of it from the geographical side.
County Monaghan is not huge, it is considered the smallest of Ulster's nine counties by both size and population, but still it is considered a good place to head for and have some good time with friends, eat some good food, and even visit some attractions along the way - just the same way we did in our trip.
Being in Monaghan and having some time to do several things, there are those places which we would recommend for our fans and followers. Monaghan County Museum is one of the attractions to visit in Monaghan which will tell you more about the history of the place, you could also pass by the Celtic High Cross and St. Tiernach's Grave, the Busy Bee Ceramics where you could make your own pot or decorate your set of ware, visiting St. Louise Convent Heritage Centre, going to St. Joseph's church, and there are those other places which you could still check but according to which town you will be visiting and staying at; for example, there is Inniskeen and Patrick Kavanagh Centre which are located in Inniskeen.
Even though the main purpose of our trip was to meet up with some friends at Hillgrove Hotel, we also managed to pass by Castle Leslie - which was the first time for us to do so - and enjoy a walk around it, and we could say that it was truly a good experience to get to see something for the first time although you should have passed by it years before.
Castle Leslie is home to an Irish branch of Clan Leslie which is both the name of a historic Country House and 1,000 acre Estate adjacent to the village of Glaslough, north-east of Monaghan town in County Monaghan. This castle is different because it is fashioned in the Scottish Baronial style and was designed by the firm of Lanyon, Lynn and Lanyon in 1870 for Sir John Leslie. The country house present a rather dour and austere facade and is sited in such a way so as to mask the gardens to an approaching visitor and there is also a Renaissance style cloister that links the main house to a single storey wing containing the library and the billiard room.
We have passed by this Leslie Castle and felt ashamed of never being there before although I have been working a long time ago in the Hillgrove Hotel which I was heading to, but eventually things come our way and it was good to experience this castle and get the chance to know more about what it is and how it looks like.
One important and good thing about this trip for us was the timing we have chosen - which might be a coincidence - but still, we managed to head to the Hillgrove Hotel to meet our friends when Christmas was just around the corner and this gave us the chance to enjoy the lighting of the place and get the festive feeling of Christmas, not just that, but it was also different to hear the Christmas songs at the petrol station while fueling the car =)
The large towns in County Monaghan include Monaghan, Carrickmacross, Castleblayney, Clones ( Ballybay and that's in addition to the other county towns which are found there and which include Ballinode, Doohamlet, Drum, Emyvale, Inniskeen, Glaslough, Killanny, Knockatallon, Magheracloone, Newbliss, Oram, Rockcorry, Scotshouse, Scotstown, Smithborough, Threemilehouse, Tydavnet, Truagh, and Latton.
Ireland and Northern Ireland are filled with lots and lots of places, restaurants and bars which one could visit to check the history of the country and the attractions it carries and at the same time enjoy nice traditional food and drinks which might not be found anywhere else (
It is always important to make your trip to any country different and filled with different experiences and that is the reason why we are trying to bring you all the places we go to visit and all the experiences we pass by in order for you to write them down, plan your trip to Northern Ireland or Ireland, and directly head for them when you are eventually here.
Share with us your experience with County Monaghan and tell us the things you liked most about the place and those which you might not recommend for other people coming in the future to visit it.

Ireland: Economic fears dominate Brexit cross-border summit
The Irish government is hosting an unprecedented cross-border summit to work out the impact of UK’s departure from the EU.
The British and Irish economies are closely linked, with billions of dollars in transactions each week.
But the fall in the value of the pound in the wake of the Brexit vote is already starting to affect Irish exports.

Part 2 - Newbliss
In my last video I mentioned that I had seen several Photo Ralliers in recent weeks at the Mick The Miller monument near where I live. Ialso spoke about how without meeting them I still knew that we had something in common, the love of motorcycles and a mental deficiency which leads us to travel long distances to see some obscure monument or oddity and how if you did get talking to one of these riders you would most likely find a firend.
While finishing up at the Seán Maguire monument in Kilcolgy a stranger rode up on a KTM and unexpectedly everything I had been speaking about on the road to Kilcolgy was proven to be true.
In this video myself and my new acquaintance Steve set off together in the direction of the Newbliss Church of Ireland (Irish Photo Rally Point) on some really savage roads through Cavan and Monaghan. There was also a SAT NAV OFF between my Suzie and Steve's own Sat nav. While Steve and I got on like old friends from the start our Sat navs....did not with humourous consequences.

Psychotic identical 'highway' twins run into Britain's busiest motorway | 60 Minutes Australia
This story is so extraordinarily bizarre it defies any logical explanation. In fact, it's so weird, if it wasn't for the cameras, you'd be hard pressed to believe any of it even happened. But, tragically, this is a real story. It began when forty-year-old identical twins from Sweden wandered out onto one of Britain's busiest motorways. That single moment of madness triggered a sequence of events that ended in murder.
