Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Fore Abbey Originally founded by St Feichin in the seventh century, this building dates from the early part of the 13th century. It was a Benedictine priory and, at its height, might have had as many as 300 monks.
This monastery is one of the "Seven Wonders of Fore". The wonder of this fine ruin is that it is a "monastery built in a bog". The other six wonders are: The water the flows uphill. The mill without a race The water that will not boil The tree that will not burn The anchorite in a stone The stone raised by St Fechin's prayers |
