Architectural fragment

What is recorded here

Friary (1838). is an architectural fragment in Banada, County Sligo, Ireland. The two-storey rectangular building measures 15.55m NW-SE and 6.4m NE-SW, presents a 19th-century appearance, and stands on a terrace overlooking the west bank of the river Moy about 350m SW of Banada abbey. Three punch-dressed and chamfered limestone blocks in the adjacent garden probably derive from that nearby abbey.
