mcdonegal1 > Clonmel, Co Tipperary, Ireland

While attending a meeting in Clonmel yesterday I saw three small buildings in the distance. After the meeting I went exploring. This is one of them. They are small and in a cemetery. No locals were around to find out any information on them and a search on the internet failed to provide any reference to them. One had the date 1886 inscribed on a plaque. They do not appear to be in use yet the cemetery is. 

Day 43: April 1, 2010.

Update: April 2...Thanks to Billiejean http://billiejean.smugmug.com/  for a link to Irish buildings where the three buildings are listed. http://www.buildingsofireland.ie/niah/search.jsp?county=TS&name=&town=clonmel&townland=&type=quick&page=2

This one is the Roman Catholic mortuary, the other one is the Church of Ireland Mortuary and the third building is the sexton's house.

mcdonegal1 > Rathfarnham Abbey

Now known as Loreto Abbey, Rathfarnham Abbey was built in 1725 for William Palliser, a decendant of a Yorkshire family, who settled in Wexford during the 17th century. In 1821 the  Catholic Archbishop of Dublin, Dr. Daniel Murray bought it for £2,000 (about €2,300) to set up a school. In 1822, after significant renovation, Sr. Teresa (Frances Ball) and her fellow sisters moved into the establishment. Sr. Teresa became known as Mother Teresa since she was the head of the order. She renamed the place Loreto, in honour of the Holy House in Nazareth, Loreto, Italy. Mother Teresa began a building programme and this was continued on by her successors. Probably the most famous connection with the building is that Mother Teresa of Calcutta entered religon at Loreto Abbey in 1928 at the age of 18.
