Sankeys LaneThis lane is located opposite the "Old Tech." - Mulcahy House. A 'Roundhead' General named Jerome Sankey remained behind in Clonmel after Cromwell's departure following the Seige of Clonmel, in 1650. He did all the dirty work of land confiscation and relocation/murder of the local Irish and Old English/Catholic population of Clonmel and its surrounding area.Although this lane did not exist then, and was probably built in the early 1800's, it may have been named after him, or his successors. |
