Glanworth Abbey
14-3-1937Adjacent to the castle grounds are the ruins of the Dominican Abbey which was founded by Dominican monks in 1220. Many students from abroad studied in this Abbey, and tradition reveals that St. Malachy was also there. They were famed and renowned for their excellent teaching, which was sought after by numerous scholars, but about 1649, after many years of holy life devoted in the service of God and his Church, they were finally evicted by Cromwell.
To prove their piety and sincere love of God a well sprung up near by which is known as St. Dominick's.
