- There are ruins of an old monastery up the Donmore Rd on the right hand side and about a half a mile from Tuam. It was founded by the Francisans Monks.
There is also a holy well there. Beside the well there are great stones of the old monastery. It is said that a few laymen carved out a beautiful thing for their cattle and sheep to drink out of. There is also a ruin of where they used to keep their sheep and cattle and beside it there is a big boiler of stone. The boiler is still on the place where the Monks used to light their fire underneath the boiler. Beside the there a great stone with letters written. Behind where the were the well sprung up stands the back wall of the buildings.- Collector
