Ref

Tybroughney, statutory spelling Tibberaghny (Irish: Tiobra Fhachna^[3]), is a civil parish in the barony of Iverk, County Kilkenny in Ireland. The parish comprises a single townland, also called Tibberaghny.^[4] It lies on the north bank of the River Suir facing County Waterford, while the Lingaun river separates it from County Tipperary to the west.^[3]

Name

The name Tiobra Fhachna means "well of Saint Fachtna", who was at Lismore Abbey in the seventh century.^[5] Various anglicised spellings include Tibberaghny,^[3] Tiberaghny,^[6] Tipperaghny,^[7] Tybroughney,^[5] Tyburoughny,^[7] Tibroughny,^[6] Tybrachny.^[3]^[6]

History

Saint Fachtna's well, the holy well from which the townland is named, lies near the ruined former parish church.^[8] Saint Modomnoc reputedly lived as a hermit in the area in the sixth century, and a pattern was celebrated there on 13 February, his feast day.^[9]^[10] The church was built before the Norman invasion of Ireland, and the parish formerly belonged to the Diocese of Lismore rather than the Diocese of Ossory.^[11] A pillar in the churchyard is carved in the style of a Celtic high cross, of which it may be a remnant.^[8]^[12] In the Church of Ireland the parish was united to Whitechurch parish by 1821,^[13] and in 1833 both were among five civil parishes in the benefice of Fiddown.^[7]^[14] In the Catholic church it is part of Templeorum parish.^[7]

The site is at the limit of access upstream on the Suir for medieval sea-going vessels.^[5] A Viking settlement here was destroyed in 980.^[5] Prince John of England built a castle here in 1185, shortly after the Norman invasion, to guard the northern border of Waterford.^[5] John's castle may have been built on the site of the extant Tybroughney Castle built in the 15th century,^[5] or a motte-and-bailey on a now-empty height near by.^[7]^[15] The parish was in County Tipperary as late as 1536, but had been transferred to County Kilkenny by 1649.^[16]
