Description
Lantern slide depicting the small church at Rahan, Co. Offaly. Originally titled 'RAHAN small ch. T. MASON, 5, DAME STREET, DUBLIN' and labelled 'K4 48'. The monastic site at Rahan is located on flat pasture land 7 miles west of Tullamore. The first monastery was established by Camelacus in the 5th century and later re-founded in the 6th century by St Carthage. The site consists of two churches and the ruin of a medieval tower house situated within a large D-shaped enclosure. The second church is the smaller of the two and lies to the east of St Carthage.
