Oliver Cromwell attempts to rally his troops at the siege of Clomnel - Painting by Graham Turner

The Bitter Pill of Defeat - Cromwell at the Siege of Clonmel, 1650 Ref: Gic-G274

Oliver Cromwell tries to browbeat a number of his fleeing soldiers into rallying for another attack on the breach at Clonmel, but having lost over a third of the column either dead or wounded, the infantry were in no mood to make another attack.

Behind Cromwell, colonels Sankey and Shelbourrne offer the services of their two divisions of Cromwell's own Regiment of Horse, but their dismounted attack would also fail with significant losses. In total, an estimated 3,000 men, or almost 40% of Cromwell's army, would become casualties in the failed assaults.
