Baptistgrange |
Baptistgrange (Irish "Gráinseach Eoin Baiste") is the site of a monastic grange (farm) in County Tipperary, not far from the village of Lisronagh. |
In the historical sources it is often known as “Achadfada” or “Achfada”. |
It supplied food and other raw materials to the Augustinian monastery of St John the Baptist, Dublin. |
The grange church, the remains of which survive, is in the middle of a graveyard. |
It was associated with a village to the north-west (now deserted) and a castle to the west. |
The latter is referred to in the Civil Survey (1654-6) as "an old broken stump of a Castle with an old broken Bawne".. |
After the dissolution of the monasteries as a consequence of the Reformation, the grange was leased out, being described as a “fortilage or castle, with a hall, etc. |
51 acres and 12 cottages, leased in 1541 to the countess of Ormond at £4”. |
The church is divided between the nave and chancel with an unusual triple chancel arch, a series of three arches right across the church interior, but now collapsed. |
On either side of the former altar, in the north and south side walls, there is a lighting opening. |
Corbels project from the side walls to the west: these, instead of putlog holes, supported wooden gallery beams. |

Pineapple Support |
Pineapple Support is a nonprofit organization that provides free and low-cost mental health therapy to pornographic film actors, producers and others who work in the adult film industry. |
It launched in April 2018 by British performer Leya Tanit in response to a series of deaths in the adult industry in late 2017 and early 2018 resulting from mental illness or addiction. |
Pineapple Support has provided over 700 members of the adult film industry with mental health support and resources, including free and low-cost therapy, counselling and emotional support, in its first two years of existence. |
In October 2019, Pineapple Support hosted an online mental health summit for the adult film industry. |
Tanit chose the name “Pineapple” because it is a common safeword in the BDSM community, and she wanted the organization to be "a safeword for performers." |
