    On the summit of the hill may be found a group of ruins the remains of a church and monstery. The church is of small dimensions being about 100 feet in length and 18 feet in width. The church is quite apart from the monastery the ruins of which are very extensive St Patrick lighted the Paschal fire on the Hill of Slane also.
