The original text, which I hope to expand and improve upon, is adapted from a government-provided information plaque at the abbey site. I have some good photos of the abbey, which I'll place under a CC license for the purposes of this article.Dppowell 02:56, 7 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Please leave the "See Also" link to the Irish monasteries page in place; it would be nice if this page could help some of those blanks get filled in. Dppowell 03:07, 12 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

I'm seeking sources for the modern preservation/restoration of the friary, e.g., who did it, who/what provided the impetus, when it happened, etc. Dppowell (talk) 03:36, 25 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
