CLOGHER

This article appears in Volume V06, Page 554 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: CLI-COM
CLOGHER , a market
village
  of Co. Tyrone, Ireland, in the
south
  parliamentary division, on the Clogher Valley light railway. Pop. (1901) 225. It gives name to dioceses of the Church of Ireland and the Roman Catholic Church, but the seat of the Roman Catholic
bishop
  is at Monaghan, with the cathedral. The
Protestant
  cathedral, dedicated to St Macartin,
dates
  from the 18th and early loth century, but St Macartin (c. 500) was a disciple of St
Patrick
 , and it is said that St
Patrick
  himself founded a bishopric here. The name is derived from the Irish clock, a pillar stone, such as were worshipped and regarded as oracles in many parts of
pagan
  Ireland; the stone was preserved as
late
  as the 15th century in the cathedral, and identity is even now claimed for a stone which lies near the church.
