The sign, written in
English, says: "This has been a place of worship
since its people were baptised by St. Patrick (441 A.D.).
Their graves facing the east and the rising sun are
symbols of their faith. The Abbey (1216 A.D.) 'that
refused to die' is a symbol of their enduring hope. The
ruined cloisters, the informer's tree, the Tochar
Phadraig walk , are symbols of their faithful love.These
hallowed grounds invite us to share that faith, that
hope, that love. This is a place of prayer and
peace."
