In the early 17th century the Plantation commissioners decreed that Tullymongan Friary (CV020-055002-) be converted into a parish church and school. The nearby castle (CV020-055004-) was also to be used as a source of stone for these new buildings. The first schoolmaster was apparently appointed c. 1623 (Davies 1948, 101). It is possible that this is the same school as that mentioned in the Calendar Patent Rolls James I for 1622 (CV020-055----). No visible remains at ground level. (Bradley and Dunne 1989, 42)
