The Irish Examiner has an article about the memorial reputed to be the grave of Samuel Grubb, a Quaker of Castlegrace, Co. Tipperary, which is in the form of a beehive.
The Grubbs were active in milling, Castlegrace Mill being their business. The mill building and mill house remain – I was part of a Mills and Millers of Ireland visit to the complex in 2022, arranged courtesy of its current owners.
I haven’t made it to this monument yet – now that I have the bulk of what is necessary for the railway network of Ireland done, I will be moving onto other additions to the Gazetteer and memorials will be part of this.
