Excellent video! The townland of Killeennamanagh (location of Springfield) was given to the Abbey of Chore (Midleton) by the local chieftain MacTire by 1177, the year the Anglo-Normans invaded Cork. MacTire was based in Mogeely, where he massacred a party of Anglo-Normas in 1182 (Giraldus), including Milo de Cogan and Ralph Fitz Robert FitzStephen. This sparked off a revolt that lasted until almost 1220.
