  • The Archaeological Record of the Cistercians in Ireland, 1142-1541
    THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL RECORD OF THE CISTERCIANS IN IRELAND, 1142-1541 written by SIMON HAYTER October 2013 Abstract In the twelfth century the Christian Church experienced a revolution in its religious organisation and many new monastic Orders were founded. The Cistercian Order spread rapidly throughout Europe and when they arrived in Ireland they brought a new style of monasticism, land management and architecture. The Cistercian abbey had an ordered layout arranged around a cloister and their order and commonality was in sharp contrast to the informal arrangement of the earlier Irish monasteries. The Cistercian Order expected that each abbey must be self-sufficient and, wherever possible, be geographically remote. Their self-sufficiency depended on their land- holdings being divided into monastic farms, known as granges, which were managed by Cisterci and worked by agricultural labourers. This scheme of land management had been pioneered on the Continent but it was new to Ireland and the socio-economic impact on medieval Ireland was significant. Today the surviving Cistercian abbeys are attractive ruins but beyond the abbey complex and within the wider environment they are nearly invisible. Medieval monastic archaeology in Ireland, which in modern terms began in the 1950s, concentrated almost exclusively on the abbey complex. The dispersed monastic land-holdings, grange complexes and settlement patterns have been almost totally ignored. This report discusses the archaeological record produced through excavations of Cistercian sites, combined

Two articles deal with John Gowan, an early Vincentian, who, readers will remember, founded the Sisters of the Holy Faith with Margaret Aylward. James Murphy’s article on nineteenth century Ireland sets such endeavours and attitudes in their broader historical context. The current edition also contains a reflection on priesthood by Kevin Scallon; written in the light of the silver jubilee of his ministry to priests, in which he works so closely with Sr Briege McKenna. The report of the Vincentian Refugee Centre in Phibsboro marks the com- pletion of two years of this work and the centre is now well into its third year. Bill Clarke’s article is a response to the recent visit to the province by the Superior General and it is worth noting that, in line with Bill’s thinking, a co-ordinator for youth ministry, Michael McCullagh, has recently been appointed.
