Cahir Abbey

Cahir, Co. Tipperary

The Abbey of Our Lady was founded in the 13th century in the reign of King John by Geoffrey de Carnville, a Norman Knight. It was an Augustinian foundation of the Order of the Canons Regular. It has a high central tower, 70ft. in height which was converted into a dwelling house at some post-reformation date. Part of another tower remains. The out-buildings reached as far as the river. Edward Lonergan was its last prior and it was in full use for over 400 years - currently being restored.
