Tinryland ()〔(Placenames Database of Ireland )〕 is a village in County Carlow, Ireland, less than 5 km south of Carlow town. It is within the townland of Tinriland (historically Tinrilan),〔 in the parish of Tullowmagimma. ==History== Settlement developed in the Tinryland area about 3700-3400 BC. These people were the first farming type people of the Neolithic Period (New Stone Age) and probably the first people to settle in the area. Evidence of these people was found at the ancient burial site in ''Linkardstown'' in 1943. The find consisted of a Polygonal stone chamber paved with stones that sloped upwards and inwards. Inside was found the remains of a single human, along with some pottery. Linkardstown Church and Graveyard is now in ruins, but the old stone baptismal font used in the church and which dates from the 18th century now stands in the grounds of the modern St. Joseph's Church, Tinryland. Ballyloo Castle, only a fragment of which remains, was home to the Kavanagh family and was built by Art Óg Kavanagh of Pulmonty, King of Leinster who died in 1417. This castle was the centre for the Kavanagh's of Ballyloo until the arrival of Cromwell 200 years later. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tinryland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
