반도 북동쪽 계곡에 위치한 이 시토회 수도원은 1200년 노르만인 윌리엄 드 클레어에 의해 설립되었습니다. 아일랜드로의 첫 항해 중 폭풍을 만나 생존하면 수도원을 세우겠다고 맹세했습니다. 수도사들은 16세기까지 이곳에 거주했으며, 이후 수도원은 거의 400년 동안 Colclough 가문의 소유였습니다. 요새화된 다리에서 매우 사진 찍기 좋은 전망을 제공하는 이 단지는 인상적인 성가퀴가 있는 탑을 포함하여 아름다운 유적을 보존하고 있습니다.

Not the highest climb around but it's a good challenge and provides great views over to Leinster Mountain on a clear day.
