Summary
| Description |
Letterfrack, County Galway, Ireland English: Old Monastery Hostel, was built by the Quakers James and Mary Ellis in 1849 to provide relief to the famine-stricken population in the area. The building was sold in 1857 and eventually purchased by the Archbishop of Tuam for the Christian Brothers who used it as a monastery close to the Industrial School for boys opened in 1886. The school and the monastery were dissolved in 1974. Later the buildings were sold to Connemara West, a local development group, who converted this into a hostel, named “Old Monastery Hostel”.
