Ned of the Hill or Eamonn an Chnoic was an outlaw or Rapparee famous in folklore in the Tipperary hills. We hope to write a comprehensive history of one of the most famous Ryans in the future.
In the meantime – listen here to a song that was reputed to have been written by him (in Irish of course).
And a song written about him by Terry Woods and Ron Kavana of the Pogues.
