The National Monuments Service's description
Unlocated monastery within townland that is described by Carrigan as 'A little less than a half a mile to the south of Durrow, in the townland of Clonageera, the site of a "monastery" is still pointed out. Some slight fragments of the walls of the monastic church remained, in the "Wilderness" about 200 yds. Almost due west of Clonageera House, till 1865, when they were cleared away. The site is now known to but very few' (Carrigan 1905, vol. 2, 224).
