“Cromwell is supposed to have passed through Drumcar on his way to Annagassan.”
Cromwell is supposed to have passed through Drumcar on his way to Annagassan. At the Cloghan-bridge he encountered some of the locals, who gave him such a thrashing that he took care never to come this way again. His army is supposed to have gone towards the North by another road.
