Bishop Felix O' Dullany, introduced into Kilkenny the Brethern of the Hospital of St. John, and the original locality in which the Monks resided was somewhere near the site of the present Tempel-na-Maul near Green's Bridge. Of the Priory nothing now remains but the Lady Chapel, which was re-roofed and converted into a Protestant Parish Church, it is now called "St. John's Church."
