- Ross Errilly Friary - Considered one of the most expansive and well-preserved Franciscan friaries in Ireland, the ruins of Ross Errilly Friary, established in 1351, remain impressive within their natural setting.
The influential de Burgh family were the primary supporters of the friary, often safeguarding it to ensure tranquility. However, in 1538, English forces killed many friars and imprisoned two hundred others.
From that time, Ross Errilly seldom experienced peace due to ongoing confiscations by the English until it was fully deserted approximately two centuries later.
