I 1267 a bunaíodh; 1548 dhíbir na Protastúnaigh na bráithre, agus milleadh na foirgnimh nó baineadh úsáid choitianta astu, sa chaoi nach bhfanann dada den sheanmhainistir inniu. Athbhunaíodh i 1615 , agus bhí na bráithre ann riamh ó shin. Cearthar bráthair a bhí anseo i 1766. Tógadh an eaglais agus an teach i 1886, agus athchóiríodh iad i 1929.


Founded 1267; 1548 friars driven out by Protestants, building turned to profane use or destroyed, so that nothing remains of the ancient buildings today. In 1615 the friars were re-established, and thereafter maintained a continuous presence. In 1766 there were four friars in the community. Present church and friary opened in 1866, reconstructed 1929.
