- Cantwell_Fada abstract "The Cantwell Fada (also known as the Long Man) is an effigy of a Norman knight that is on display in the ruins of a 14th-century church in Kilfane near Thomastown in County Kilkenny, Ireland.The effigy is carved from a single slab of limestone. The knight wears a suit of chain mail.His legs are crossed, the right leg over the left, believed to show that he was a participant in the crusades. In the left hand is carried a large shield bearing the arms of the Cantwell family.It is believed to represent Thomas de Cantwell (d. 1319), a Cambro-Norman adventurer who became Lord of Kilfane.The stone effigy is thought to originally have been a sarcophagus slab which has since been set upright against an inner wall of the church.The statue represents a noted example of such art achieved by the Normans prior to a cultural and economic decline marked by the Bruce invasion and the arrival of Black Death.Hubert Butler recalled the local tale that children at the nearby Protestant school were sometimes punished by having to kiss the statue.Nearby is The Longman of Kilfane, a public house and restaurant named for the Cantwell Fada.".
