Our hope is to provide information and photographs of every site where there are some visible remains related to the early Church in Ireland. This means, very approximately, up to AD 1100

We hope that the photographs and map references will encourage you to visit these places. The names of saints connected to them, where known, are also given.

We hope that acquaintance with those who lived and prayed in these places will stimulate a sense of unity so much needed among the churches today.

Special Pages have been inserted to supply a further amount of historical context

If you have a place or a photograph you wish to be included, we encourage you to contact Fr John Musther who is an Orthodox Priest in Keswick, UK, who also leads pilgrimages in Ireland for the Orthodox Parish of St Ignatius, Belfast. Completion of the project will rely on such assistance. Email: john_musther@hotmail.com for queries or contributions
