Part of the monastic complex at Kilmacduagh, this National Monument is located in low-lying grassland, flanked to the SW, W and NNE by marshy land, and close to the county boundary between Galway and Clare. It was built by the Augustinian Canons in the first half of the 13th century (Harbison 1975, 95) under the patronage of the O’Heynes (Fahey 1904, 227) and it replaced an earlier monastery (see GA128-034004-). The present remains show unmistakable evidence of restoration at different periods (Fahey 1904, 227). The main buildings are the nave (E-W; L 17.2m; Wth c. 6.8m) and chancel (L 5.8m; Wth c. 6.7m) church, with the sacristy and conventual buildings extending to the S, from the E end of the nave. The wall-footings immediately to the N of the nave indicate that the church was originally wider. The present wall was probably built following the collapse of this earlier wall in the 14th or 15th century (Harbison 1975, 95). Towards the W end of the wall, a foundation line (L 22m) running NNE-SSW is also evident. At its N end it turns eastwards (L c. 14m) before it becomes obscured by a later field wall and overgrowth. In this section the remains of an arched door/gateway survive. The main architectural features of the church include pointed arch doorways in the N and S walls of the nave, and columns with decorated capitals, which supported the now missing chancel arch. In the chancel, the E gable has a fine two-light round-headed window with hood- and roll-mouldings. Set in a deep embrasure in the S wall is a narrow round-headed window, also with a hood-moulding, and below it is a piscina. The sacristy is lit by a narrow rectangular window in the E wall; a round-arched doorway in the S wall gives access to a small vaulted chamber 'said to have been the Treasury' (Fahey 1904, 229). It too was lit by a rectangular window in the E wall. Adjoining this chamber to the S, but not accessible from it, is a larger room that was possibly the refectory or chapter room (ibid.). It was accessed by a doorway (now blocked up) in the W wall; there are two narrow round-headed windows in the E wall. To the S of this again is a partially destroyed two-storey building. A narrow rectangular doorway in the N wall at 1st-floor level probably accessed the dormitories. Narrow rectangular windows are visible at this level in the E wall. Most of the W wall and the entire S wall of this building are destroyed.

Part of the monastic complex at Kilmacduagh and situated 100m to the NNE of the cathedral (GA128-034004-). This edifice, now a National Monument, has been variously interpreted as a 'seminary' and/or the residence of the abbot or bishop (Fahey 1904, 230; Harbison 1975, 95). The original building was a rectangular two-storey hall-house (16.2m E-W; 6.7m N-S), aligned roughly E-W, that was accessed via a doorway at 1st-floor level in the S wall. It most likely dates to the 13th century but a number of major alterations are evident, most recently the restoration which involved re-roofing the E half of the building with a gabled roof and crenellated parapet. Only the E jamb of the original doorway survives. Below and slightly to the E of it is a beam slot which probably supported the external wooden staircase. The ground-floor chamber appears to have been originally roofed with wooden beams, the slots for which survive internally at the W end. It was lit by narrow slit windows, set in wide embrasures, in contrast to the original 1st floor which was lit by a number of two-light cusped and pointed-arch windows. The ground and 1st-floor chambers are now subdivided by an internal wall. This is possibly part of a late medieval re-edification which saw the E part rebuilt as a three-storey tower house-like building. The entrance to this is via a pointed-arch doorway at ground-floor level at the E end of the S wall. Fahey (1904, 230) noted 'an oriel [window], looking north-east … on the upper floor'; all that now survives is a large ope in the W wall. There were two rectangular projections on the N and S walls close to the NE and SW corners, respectively. That on the SW corner survives only as a foundation line (5m E-W; 3.4m N-S).

Part of the monastic complex at Kilmacduagh: this early medieval nave and chancel church (E-W; L 13m; Wth 5.5m) is dedicated to St John the Baptist. According to Harbison (1970, 95), the chancel is a later addition. Apart from the outer portion of the chancel arch and the S wall (H c. 4m) most of the fabric has been heavily reconstructed/re-pointed. There are two windows in the S wall, one with a pointed arch and the other with a rounded arch. Part of the arch of another window is visible in the S wall of the chancel. The cathedral (GA128-034004-) is c. 50m to the SSW.

Part of the monastic complex at Kilmacduagh. This National Monument is the site of a 6th/7th-C monastery attributed to St Colman Mac Duach, on land granted to him by Guaire, King of Uí Fiachrach Aidne. Though the church was not chosen as an episcopal see at the Synod of Rathbeasail, the bishopric of Kilmacduagh asserted its right to independent status in 1152. Following a series of attacks it was in ruins by the early 13th century (Gwynn and Hadcock 1970, 39, 50, 87, 183). The present remains comprise a multiperiod nave (E-W; L 20m; Wth 6m) and chancel (L 7.5m; Wth 6m) church. The W gable with its blocked-up trabeate doorway is the earliest part, possibly of 11th-12th-century date, while the rest of the nave dates mainly to c. 1200. Transepts opening to the N and S were added in 15th century at which time the chancel was rebuilt along with the adjoining sacristy (Harbison 1975, 95; Fahey 1904, 225-6). The main architectural features include a plain chancel arch, another blocked-up doorway at the E end of the N wall of the nave, a pointed arch doorway with the head of a bishop above it in the S wall of nave, high pointed arches to the N and S transepts, a round-headed doorway in the sacristy, three-light tracery windows in the E gable of the chancel and the S wall of the S transept, a flat-headed three-light window in W gable of the nave, a twin-light window in the E wall of the N transept and an ogee-headed window, beneath which is an altar, in the N wall of the N transept.

Part of the monastic complex at Kilmacduagh. From the details recorded by O’Donovan and Petrie in the OS Letters (O'Flanagan 1927, Vol. 2, 163, 189 and facing p. 65), there appears to be some confusion as to whether the site of ‘Macudagh’s Chapel’ and the site of ‘Macduagh’s Tomb’ (GA128-034006-) are one and the same site or are two separate sites as indicated on the OS 6-inch maps. O’Donovan (ibid. 163) notes that ‘Temple Mac Duach’ was situated ‘a short distance to the north of the Round Tower [GA128-034008-] and to the S.W. of the Cathedral [GA128-034004-]’. It had been destroyed but there were still ‘old men living’ who remembered to ‘have seen parts of it standing’ and apparently it was ‘but a small building’. O’Donovan (ibid., facing p. 65) annotated it no. 7 on his accompanying map of the site. Petrie (ibid. 188-9) claims he was one of the ‘old men who saw the whole foundation of it’ and states that he sketched and measured it. Its ‘length was 10ft 2ins [3.1m] and its breadth 5ft 2ins [1.5m]’. He was told it was the ‘tomb of Mac Duach’ and notes that it appears to have occupied the site indicated by O’Donovan as being that of the church or ‘at least was very near it’ (ibid.).

Part of the monastic complex at Kilmacduagh. Described by O’Donovan in the OS Letters (O'Flanagan 1927, Vol. 2, 168-9) as an ash tree which was held in great veneration; people carried small pieces of it about as 'preservatives against accidents'. Its precise location is unclear. O’Donovan (ibid.) states it was located ‘a short distance to the north west of the Cathedral’ (GA128-034004-) and that it was ‘built up in a stone, Cloidhe, ditch’. It is depicted at this location on his site plan (ibid., facing p. 65, no. 9). Fahey (1893, 111), who referred to it as a yew tree, believed that it was to the W of the cathedral. However, on the OS 6-inch maps it is located c. 65m to the SW of this building. No visible surface trace survives.

Part of the monastic complex at Kilmacduagh: located c. 40m to the SSW of the cathedral (GA128-034004-). By the 19th century this round tower (H 34.3m; diam. c. 5.5m), a National Monument, was in a very dilapidated state. The greater portion of its cap was missing and the whole of the SW side was breached. It was restored in 1878-9 by the Office of Public Works and at this time excavations showed that it was constructed on very slight foundations on an earlier burial ground. Further works were carried out in 1971 which included repointing the stonework (Lennox Barrows 1979, 100-104, 107). The tower is seven storeys high and is built of limestone blocks cut slightly in the round and set on a wide plinth. The round-headed doorway, facing ENE, is at a height of 7.9m above ground level. Each floor is lit by a single triangular-headed window, apart from the uppermost floor where there are six; all are square-headed internally. The tower leans noticeably to the SW.

Apart from its foundation lines, only a short section of the original N wall (L 2.8m; H 3m) survives. It is composed of undressed mortared blocks with a rubble core and is visible at the E end of the wall. Modern drystone walls now overlie the foundation lines and there is a modern entrance in the S wall.

Part of the monastic complex at Kilmacduagh and located c. 12m to the SW of ‘O'Heynes Monastery’ (GA128-034011-). Apart from the S gable which survives almost intact, only the lower courses of the W and E side-walls and the N gable remain of this rectangular building (13.3m NNE-SSW; 5.3m WNW-ESE). There is a flat-headed doorway in the S gable above which a single-light round-headed window of 15th-C date is visible. Harbison (1975, 95) refers this building as a church 'of uncertain date'. However, its alignment and the position of the window suggest that it may have been a domestic building associated with the adjacent abbey.

A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
