Although the original abbey was founded by St Baedan in the 8th century, the current ruins are of the Augustinian Priory of St Mary which was founded in the 12th century by Turlough O'Conor, King of Connacht.

The abbey was surrendered to Henry VIII in 1551 but the monks remained undisturbed until the end of the 17th century. Keep your eye out for the impressively carved western doorway.

From the highlight head north down the lane to find the abbey.
