Kilmallock Collegiate Church




Map Reference: R609278 (1609, 1278)

To the south of the priory, near the centre of the town, is the ruin of the Collegiate Church of Saints Peter and Paul.



It has three aisles, a chancel and a north transept. In the south wall is a fine 13th century doorway. The chancel with its five lancet windows formerly served as a Church of Ireland church.



The nave and transept were greatly altered in the 15th century when a south porch was added. In the corner near the west end is a Round Tower about 17m high.



This may be the remains of a monastery originally founded by St Mo-cheallog in the 7th century.
