Durrow in History – A Celebration of What Has Gone Before
A Celebration of What Has Gone Before is the story of an ancient part of Offaly. Durrow, north of Tullamore
is the site of a monastery founded by Colum Cille, home for many years to the celebrated Book of Durrow and
to a High Cross still standing among the ancient monastic remains. Close to the old graveyard is Durrow
Abbey associated with the Norbury family. The Catholic parish church of 1851 has been lately restored
through local effort and is set in the heart of a growing community conscious of its deep historical traditions.
