• GA069-001003 Causeway
  Description

  The W end of this causeway terminates at the pier only 100m E of the Augustinian abbey (GA069-001013-). It traverses an area of marshy grassland along the lakeshore and is traceable for 240m. From E side of the pier, the causeway follows an ENE axis for 90m before turning slightly S to run ESE for a further 150m. It may well turn S towards Annanghdown Castle (GA069-002----) after this but its line is difficult of trace due to overgrowth and spoil heaps. It consists of two parallel lines of large limestone boulders set on edge (Wth 2-2.3m), though no trace of internal fill is visible. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'. Compiled by Olive Alcock, Kathy de hÓra and Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999). Date of upload: 05 August 2010

• GA069-001004 Religious house - Augustinian nuns
  Description

  The initial monastery established at Annaghdown is traditionally attributed to St Brendan of Clonfert (Gwynn and Hadcock 1970, 60-61, 203, 276, 312, 359). It adopted the rule of the Canons Regular of St Augustine in the 12th century (ibid., 156-7) when a convent of Arroasian Augustinian nuns was also established. The latter appears to have failed at the end of the century but may have been revived as a house of Premonstratensian Canons (GA069-001005-) before 1224 (Killanin and Duignan 1967, 56-7). No visible surface trace of this nunnery survives. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 20 December 2017

• GA069-001005 Religious house - Premonstratensian canons
  Description

  This church stands on a gently S-facing slope at N end of the modern graveyard and is the northernmost of the monuments at Annaghdown. Known locally as the 'Nunnery', these ruins have been equated with the monastery of 'St. John the Baptist, de Cella Parva', a Premonstratensian abbey established at Annaghdown before 1224, perhaps on the site of an earlier nunnery(GA069-001004-) (Killanin and Duignan 1967, 56-7; Gwynn and Hadcock 1970, 203). The standing remains consist of a conserved nave and chancel church, aligned E-W. Of the nave (L 15.25m, Wth 6.1m), only N and S walls still stand to full height, the W gable and chancel arch being reduced to foundations. However, the nave appears to be earlier than the chancel (L 9.8m, Wth 5.5m). Only the foundations of the latter survive except at NE corner where part of E gable survives to full height preserving N embrasure of E window. In the nave, there are traces of an internal dividing wall towards W end, immediately to E of which is a late medieval pointed arch doorway in N wall. The subdivision was lit by two small rectangular windows in N wall, ranged one above the other. These features are probably part of the residential quarters at W end of the church. There are also two other opes, possibly doorways; one in N wall of nave near the junction of the nave and chancel, the other centrally placed in S wall. Immediately W of the latter are possible traces of another window. (Cochrane 1901, 319; Fahey 1904, 135; O' Flanagan 1927, Vol. 1, 268; Killanin and Duignan 1967, 56; Harbison 1975, 81) The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.

• GA069-001006 Graveyard
  Description

  Associated with the monastic complex at Annaghdown and immediately to the N of the church (GA069-001005-). This graveyard is depicted by a broken line on the 1838 edition of the OS 6-inch map as a roughly rectangular unenclosed area (c. 50m N-S; c. 40m E-W). It is now part of a modern graveyard (NE-SW c. 69m; c. 67m NW-SE) that has been extended southwards (c. 61m NW-SE; c. 48m NE-SW) to the E of the church. It is bounded by a plastered concrete wall, interspersed with piers, on the E side and access to it is gained via an iron gateway in this wall with a stile immediately to its S. The enclosing walls on the N, W and S sides are of mass concrete. All the headstones, which are mainly of marble, date to the 20th century. This graveyard now merges with another graveyard (GA069-0010012-) immediately to its S. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 30 May 2018

• GA069-001007 Church
  Description

  Situated 10m S of the 'Nunnery' (GA069-001005-). A poorly preserved and much-conserved rectangular building, now a Nat. Mon. According to Harbison (1975, 81), it represents 'the foundations of an early Church which is the oldest on the site, and may be of 11th or 12th century date'. Standing remains consist of a featureless rectangular structure (E-W; L 10m, Wth 3.55m) with two doorways: (a) centrally placed in W gable, and (b) near W end of S wall. The latter leads to a featureless rectangular annexe (L 7.35m, Wth 2.75m) with a rectangular tower-like feature (E-W; L 1.55, Wth 2.75m) at W end; possibly a latrine. This annexe is probably a later addition as suggested by Harbison (ibid.), as it is not bonded into the main wall of the church. Within its interior there is a medieval graveslab (GA069-001008-) and an architectural fragment which appears to be the head of a window. Two cross-slabs (GA069-001009- and GA069-001010-) are also associated. The monument was taken into Ownership under the National Monuments Acts 1930 to 2014 - National Monument 49.

• GA069-001008 Graveslab
  Description

  In the NE corner of an annexe off the S side of what is regarded as the earliest church (GA069-001007-) at Annaghdown (Harbison 1975, 81). This graveslab (L 1.87m; T 0.1m), which is broken into three pieces, tapers slightly from the E end (Wth 0.5m) to the W end (Wth 0.57m). Two incised lines running down the centre of the fragments open into a trefoil at the tip of the E fragment. A small incised triskele within a circle is visible to the S of the trefoil. The graveslab probably dates to between the late 15th and 16th centuries (pers. comm. J. Higgins, August 1988).

• GA069-001009 Cross-inscribed pillar
  Description

  When this cross-slab was recorded by Higgins (1987, part ii, 321, no. 38, Fig. 38) it stood to the E of what is regarded as the earliest church (GA069-001007-) at Annaghdown (Harbison 1975, 81) but it was not firmly set into the ground. It came to light during works in this area, by the Office of Public Works (OPW), in the 1950s when it was subsequently set upright (pers. comm. J. Higgins, 23 October 2014). A lost slab (GA069-001010-) used to lie beneath it (Higgins 1987, part ii, 312). By the early 1980s the cross-slab had been moved to the interior of the church (GA069-001011-), which lies c. 55m to the SE (SMR file 1983). It was moved again and when inspected in October 2014 it was standing against the external face of the E gable of this church. In April 2015 it was temporarily removed to the OPW depot for safe-keeping. The cross-slab consists of a small round-topped limestone pillar (H 0.63m; Wth 0.16m; T 0.09-0.1m) decorated on both faces with a cross. The cross on the front face is a simple one-line Latin cross, which occupies the upper third of the slab. The cross on the reverse face is more complex in design and it occupies the upper half of the slab. It consists of a cross with two arms with two additional vertical lines running midway between the arms (Higgins 1987, part ii, Fig. 38).

• GA069-001011 Church
  Description

  At S end of the modern graveyard, 75m SSE of the 'Nunnery' (GA069-001005-). Named variously in older accounts as the 'Protestant' or 'Church of England' church (Cochrane 1901, 320; Fahey 1904, 134), indicating that it was in use until the 18th C. It is now a conserved Nat. Mon. comprising an intact rectangular church (E-W; L 15.8m, Wth 6.05m) possibly of the medieval date, though the heavy rendering makes dating difficult: an enigmatic vertical line is visible in the masonry of N wall towards E end. There is a pointed arch doorway in N wall, towards W end, for which Harbison (1975, 81) suggests a date 'about 1200'. The E gable incorporates a magnificent late Romanesque window (Cochrane 1901, 319-20; Leask 1977, 157-9). Opinions as to the original location of these two elements differ; Killanin and Duignan (1967, 56-7) suggest that the present structure 'may well occupy the site of an earlier church', but the view more commonly advocated is that the window came from the abbey (GA069-001013-). There are two pointed arch windows in S wall, a robbed window in N wall and a bell tower on the apex of W gable, and of which probably date to the 17th C or later. Within the interior are numerous cut-stone fragments, some of which may be 12th-13th C in date. (O'Flanagan 1927, Vol. 1, 268; Killanin 1951, 117) The monument was taken into Ownership under the National Monuments Acts 1930 to 2014 - National Monument 49.

• GA069-001012 Graveyard
  Description

  Associated with the monastic complex at Annaghdown and surrounding the church (GA069-001011-) and round tower (GA069-001016-. This graveyard (c. 78m NW-SE; c. 63m NE-SW) now merges with another graveyard (GA069-001006-) immediately to its N. It is defined along its E side by a continuation of the E wall of N graveyard: a plastered concrete wall interspersed with piers. Access is gained by a series of steps at its N end. The S and W walls are of mortared construction and the S wall is almost completely overgrown with ivy. The N end opens onto a clear grassy area. Burials are marked by mainly upright headstones dating to the 19th and 20th centuries but a number of 18th-century recumbent inscribed graveslabs are also visible to the N of the church. A much-collapsed vault is visible to its SW. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 30 May 2018

• GA069-001013 Religious house - Augustinian canons
  Description

  On the lakeshore 150m SSW of the 'Nunnery' (GA069-001005-). Founded sometime after 1195 when it was granted to the Canons Regular of St Augustine (Gwynn and Hadcock 1970, 156-7). A Nat. Mon., the present remains consist of a restored nave (E-W; L 26.5m) chancel (L 5.6m, Wth 4.5m) church 'of at least three periods' (Killanin and Duignan 1967, 57). The earliest section is the chancel which is of Transitional-date. It contains two finely cut opposing round-headed windows in its side-walls, the S example having Romanesque decoration on its arch terminals. Its E gable contains a robbed window which some authorities believe to be the original location of the Romanesque window presently in the 'cathedral' (GA069-001011-). Later architectural features include a pointed arch doorway in N wall of nave, to W of which is a trefoil-headed window, and a rectangular window in W gable. The cloister and domestic buildings lie to S but only the foundations of the former and fragmentary remains of the latter survive. The E range was two storeys high with the ground floor divided into five rooms, two of which have doorways leading to the cloister. The first floor is lit by series of opposing rectangular windows. The S range comprises a large featureless structure, in SW corner of which, set into a recess, are fragments of a fine Romanesque chancel arch. A single fortress-like wall with a number of small rectangular windows is all that survives of W range. A cross-slab is associated (Higgins 1987, 336, no. 62).

• GA069-001014 Graveyard
  Description

  This graveyard occupies the almost square grass-covered cloister area (c. 26m3m NW-SE; c. 25.8m NE-SW) of the abbey (GA069-001013-). There are two burials along the W wall and two rows of burials in its E half. All date to the 20th century and the majority are marked by upright headstones. Two recumbent slabs were noted but these were almost totally grass covered. No inscriptions were visible on them but the exposed surfaces were rough suggesting that the inscribed side of the slab was face down. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 30 May 2018

• GA069-001015 Cross-slab
  Description

  This cross-slab is in the nave of the abbey (GA069-001013-). It was recorded by Higgins (1987, ii, 336, no. 62, Fig. 58) who described it as a fragmentary recumbent limestone slab (max. L 1.28m; max. Wth 0.27m; T 0.2m) with traces of a multi-line cross. None of the original edges or any of the terminals survived. The cross design was irregular – on three of the limbs it consisted of four lines, while on the fourth it was of two lines. Near the widest end of the slab there was a semicircular feature or boss. The cross-slab probably dates to the 13th century (pers. comm. Dr J. Higgins, 23 October 2014).

• GA069-001020 Ecclesiastical enclosure
  Description

  Text excavation under Ministerial Consent (No. C627/Excavation No. 4557) in the field immediately to the N of the existing graveyard (GA069-001006-) at Annaghdown revealed a section of what appears to be the fosse of the ecclesiastical enclosure (Wth 4.2m; D 1.55-1.8m) associated with the monastic complex. The fill of the fosse, which was orientated ENE-WSW, contained a large amount of animal bone, one human bone, some charcoal and pieces of iron slag, and a fragment of the upper stone of a rotary quern with a cross decoration. The animal bone has been radiocarbon dated to the 11th/12th century AD (Crumlish 2017, 216-32). Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 1 August 2018

• GA069-001021 Graveslab
  Description

  This graveslab, which was brought to our attention by Dr Jim Higgins, Heritage Officer, Galway City Council, is one of 'two remarkable tombstones' (see also GA069-001022-) recorded by Wilde (1867, 69) that were discovered in the rubbish that had accumulated under the site of the chancel arch of the church (GA069-001013-). It consists of the roughly hewn upper fragment (L 0.74m; Wth 0.52m; T 0.007m) of the slab, which is now embedded in the ground in the NE corner of the nave. The face is decorated with a large fleur-de-lis motif with traces of a smaller decorative feature below this on the N side of the slab. The detail is very difficult to make out. Wilde's (ibid.) illustration indicates that there was also a corresponding decorative feature on the S side of the slab.
