What is recorded here
Franciscan friars built ARMAGH FRANCISCAN FRIARY during the MEDIEVAL period, creating a sacred anchor inside the grand Parkmore OR Demesne. The State now protects the remains, acknowledging that monastic discipline and spiritual ambition once shaped the local landscape. The building no longer dominates the view, but the land still carries the weight of that forgotten devotion.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ARMAGH FRANCISCAN FRIARY. Recorded period: MEDIEVAL. Recorded protection: State Care. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
