It seems appropriate that, on the day when it has been announced that Clonliffe College has been handed over to provide accommodation for Ukranian refugees, we feature a photograph of the tomb of a Prince of the Church, Cardinal Cullen situated in Clonliffe in Dublin. This is a Royal plate which seems to be very large for a relatively small object?

He was buried at Holy Cross College in Drumcondra beneath the High Altar. On June 25th, 2021, his remains were transferred to St. Mary’s Pro-Cathedral, Dublin 1.
