What is recorded here

Augustinian Abbey/Priory (KD023-016----) founded in 1202 by Meyler Fitzhenry which was founded 590m NE of a fording point over the River Liffey annotated 'Connell Ford' on the 1837 ed. OS 6-inch map. The present disused roadway which runs immediately N of the monastery and then turns SW towards the river probably follows the line of a medieval routeway which traversed the River Liffey at 'Connell Ford'. The terrier of the 17th century Down Survey map for the barony of Great Connell recorded the presence of 'Connell Foords' over the River Liffey.
