The Slieveardagh Heritage Group that meet in Killenaule Library every Tuesday evening between 6.30pm and 8pm took part in a Nationwide Programme on 21st April 2010. Two of the members, Liam Noonan and Willie Quinlan discussed the O Tunny Carvings on the Medieval Butler Tomb in Kilcooley Abbey, which is North of Killenaule. The O Tunny’s were noted sculptors from the Callan School of Sculptor and have carved a number of funerary monuments in the South East including Cashel, Thurles and Kilcooley. This programme can be viewed here. This group produced a calandar depicting the Apostle Weepers on this tomb in 2010 and a copy of this is available in Kilenaule Library.
