    Hadn't noticed that in the article until you pointed it out. The information though was correct on the website:

    "As one enters the main door of the Church one might notice a commemorative plaque to Fr. Kavanagh who was parish priest of the area in 1798. He is reputed to have negotiated a ‘deal’ with the then landlord Robert Cornwall, to build a road, now known as the Croppy Road in exchange for rebels being freed."
