of the twelfth century; but a more ancient one, of rfc 

 gular canons, was the work of St. Patrick. Newtown 

 alfo had a monaflery of Dominican friars, founded by 

 Walter De Burgh in 1244. The lafl prior voluntarily 

 fur rendered three townlands in his pofleffion to Henry

 Claneboys, at the rent of 1 3^. qd. Irifh money. 



Befides thofe religious houfes above mentioned, there

 churches. I fhall give an alphabetical lift of them, as

Achadhcaoil, near Dundrum, in the barony of Le-

Ardicnife, a Francifcan friary; unknown. 



Breatain, in Lecale; founded in the fujth century. 



Cluaindaimh, in Iveagh. 



Domnachmaghin ; founded by St. Patrick, in Mug-

 Downpatrick. This was deflroyed by Sir John De 

 Courcey, who built an abbey at Inis, or Inch, in atone- 

 ment, though it had been fortified againft him.
