The Bulletin  

THE HAUNTED TYPEWRITER -p4ge 20  

“The Bulletin,” Vol. 76—No. 3910  

Wednesday, January 19, 1955  

Price 9d.  

Registered at the General Post Office, Sydney, N.S.W., Australia, for transmission by Post as Newspape^  

ST. PATRICK'S CATHEDRAL STANDS ON ARMAGH SOIL THE SAINT ONCE TROD  

FOR fifteen centuries Armagh has been the ecclesiastical capital of Ireland  

and for two thousand years much of the country’s history has been  

written in and around the city. Its origin is lost in the mists of the past ana  

although it was place of great importance in the pre-Christian era theie  

are no records to show the date of its actual founding before ->5O b.c. What  

is certain, however, is the fact that St. Patrick built church in Armagh  

the fifth century on the hill-top site where nojv stands the Cathedral of St.  

Patrick.  

Around the original church of St. Patrick there grew up many religious  

houses, monasteries and nunneries and also great school which was famous  

throughout Europe. At one time there were seven thousand students, includ-  

ing many from England and the Continent, at the college in Armagh.  

Armagh’s fame and prosperity, however, did not survive long, for in  

the year 830 party of Norsemen captured and sacked the city. Two years  

later they returned in greater numbers and pillaged the monasteries, burned the  

priceless manuscripts in which the monks had chronicled the legends and  

history of the country and, finally, the bishop, the monks, priests and student.  

were driven from the city. Many battles were fought in and around Armagh,  

but, though often defeated, the invaders were always reinforced from beyond  

the North Sea. Finally, in 1014, the Irish under Brian Boru defeated the  

Danes so decisively at Clontarf that their power over Ireland was at last  

broken for ever. In this historic battle Brian himself, his son and his nephew  

were killed and all three were buried in the Cathedral where tablet marks  

the site of Brian B'oru’s grave.  

Part of the Cathedral, as it stands today, dates from 1268 but great  

improvements were carried out by Archbishop Robinson 1765 and most  

of the fabric dates from that time. Further rebuilding was carried out in  

182-2 when £lB.OOO was spent on renovation. The Cathedra which has  

battlemented central tower, is in the Perpendicular Gothic style and contains  

some verv fine marble monuments and sculptures by Roubiliac and Rysbrack.
