The Kingdom of Brefine was the traditional territory for an early Irish tribal group. It includes the counties of Lectrim and Cavan along with parts of County Sligo.

It was decided to instigate a Knight's Cross that was privately produced in low numbers and given to members. Ex Dr Barrie Towers Collection.
