Burrishoole Dominican Friary
Burrishoole Dominican Friary
Phone direct :
Clew Bay, Mayo
Situated beside an inlet of the sea, this Friary was founded in 1486 by Richard Burke, MacWilliam Iochtair, for the Dominicans. The church consists of a nave, chancel and south transept, the last two of which have well-preserved windows of the period. The stubby low tower is almost more Cistercian than Dominican in character. The eastern wall of the cloister, with its almost rounded windows, is preserved up to first-floor level; the other domestic buildings have vanished. A 15th century seal...
Timoleague Franciscan Friary.
Timoleague Franciscan Friary.
Phone direct :
Timoleague, Cork
Founded possibly by the Mac Carthy Reagh, Lord of Carbery, in 1240 or by William de Barry during the reign of Edward 111 for the Friars of the Strict Observance of St. Francis. The buildings date from various periods. The original church was much shorter than the present one, extending only as far westwards as the third arch from the tower. The church was probably lengthened when the tower was added by Edmund de Courcy, Bishop of Ross, who died in 1518. There is an aisle and a transept with...

Cork, Cork
The friary was founded in 1229 or 1237 for the Augustinian Canons by Philip de Barry who dedicated it to St. Thomas and erected a brass statue of himself on horseback in the church. David de Barry enlarged and enriched the monastery in 1235. The church was built shortly after the foundation and has tow fine west windows. The central tower with interior staircase and the tower to the west were both added in the 15th century. The claustral buildings contain little of interest. The most unusua...

Kilcrea Franciscan Friary
Kilcrea Franciscan Friary
Phone direct :
Cork, Cork
A Franciscan Friary founded by Cormac Laidir MacCarthy, Lord of Muskerry in 1465. The long church has a south aisle and transept, but the lack of decoration gives a rather austere impression. The tower is contemporary with the church. An unusual feature is the multi-windowed sacristy and scriptoria to the north of the chancel which is the most decorative part of the building. Although nothing remains of the cloister, the buildings which surrounded it are well preserved. The Friary may not h...
Castleyons Dominican Friary
Castleyons Dominican Friary
Phone direct :
Castlelyons, Cork
Founded in 1307, by John de Barry for the Carmelite Friars, and dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary. The present ruins are, however, probably of 15th century date, consisting of a nave-and-chancel church, and the eastern and western portions of the domestic buildings. There is a fine west doorway in the church with a twin-lighted window above it. The tower which divides the nave and chancel of the church is only partially preserved, though the spiral staircase within its walls is preserved u...
Meelick Franciscan Friary
Meelick Franciscan Friary
Phone direct :
Meelick, Galway
Of the original church there remain the walls, the west doorway and, in the south wall, two aisle arches (with a figure of St. Francis inserted later between them) and another beside the alter which led to a now no longer existing south transept.
The east window is a modern insertion, but the west window probably dates to a partial reconstruction in the 17th century, when a door to the sacristy was inserted. Parts of the east and west portions of the domestic buildings still stand....
Multfarnham
Multfarnham
Phone direct :
Mullingar, Westmeath
This is an attractive old world village, a National Tidy Town winner, set at the entrance to Multyfarnham Friary. The Fransciscans have a long association with this place, having set up a monastery there in the early 14th century. Despite the dissolution of the monasteries in 1535 and havig been evicted a number of times, they always returned and now run a modern agricultural college.
The church, recently restored in the traditional Franciscan style, incorporates original sections d...

Mayo, Mayo
The Dominican Friary: the friary was founded by the de Burgh or a MacJordan for the Dominicans in 1274. the 13th century church is a long rectangular structure with a small crucifixion panel over the west door and the remains of a fine triple lancet east window. Possibly as late as the 15th century some of the lancet windows in the south wall were built up, and at the same time a separate aisle was added with a fine window. The nave was partially rebuilt in the 15th century. To the north...
