Agivey Abbey
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Agivey Monastery was an early monastic site in Northern Ireland.[1]
It was purportedly founded in the 7th century by Goarcus of Aghadowey. It subsequently became a dependency of the Abbey of St. Mary-de-la-Fonta, which was founded in 1172 and to which this district became a grange.[2][3]
The monastery was dissolved in 1604, and the land was granted to the Ironmongers’ Company of London.[4][3]
