- (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)Twenty five years before this a blacksmith named Supple who was induced from a dream to dig among the ruins in search of money. He did so and discovered a stone coffin containing a skeleton adorned with a cross and chain of gold and a thin plate of the same precious metal stamped with a representation of the crucifixion. These relics were carried by the finder to Cork and disposed of to a goldsmith by whom they were consigned to the crucible and the stone coffin converted to a pig-trough at the cabin of a farmer near the abbey. The accuracy of this has been corroborated by son of Supple's.
The remains of the abbey consist of the steeple, part of the chancel with the cast window, and a lofty tower detached from the rest of the buildings of which it originally formed a part and which shows the whole to have been an extensive pile. A farmer has built his house and offices across the centre of the church and the west end is occupied as a cowhouse.
The west gable has a lofty early English couplet. Four massive piers have been built at some period subsequent to the original erection, two of them in the western internal angles, upon which vaults are turned, converting this end of the church into a fortified structure. You can ascend to the top by a stairs constructed in one of the piers. The vaulting is ornamented with some grotesque heads. There are circular holes in the vaulting as if a peal of bells had been there.(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)
