CLOGHER, a small village, Co. Tyrone, Ireland. Pop. (192 1) 197. It gives its name to dioceses of the Church of Ireland and the Roman Catholic Church, though the seat of the bishop of the latter is at Monaghan. The dedication of the Protestant cathedral to St. Macartin is of interest, for although the building is modern, St. Macartin is associated with St. Patrick, who is said to have founded a bishopric here. The name is derived from cloth, a pillar stone—an object of worship in the locality, preserved in the cathedral until the 15th century.
