| CLOYNE ABBEY, COUNTY CORK.- Irish annalists assert that the Bishopric of Cloyne, the the County of Cork, dated from the sixth century, and the Abbey, which has been partially restored, dates from a period almost as remote. Unlike most edifices of its kind in Ireland, it is small, and what may be called, without irreverance, "squatty" in size and shape. |
