Old Stone Abbey

It has been a busy few weeks for Panoramic Ireland with photo tours in Dublin, Antrim, Galway, Mayo and Kerry.

Here, on one of a few rare days off a visit to an old stone abbey surrounded by trees. Peaceful and quiet save for a few birds and my own footsteps on the gravel underfoot.

This old place would once have been a thriving community, noisy with the daily machinations of an abbey - chants, prayers, food preparation, beekeeping and agriculture. Now so little remains, the roof long gone, stones quarried over the centuries by locals wanting to build new structures and nature slowly reclaiming the few walls left standing.
