R6027 : Kilmallock Collegiate Church
taken 16 years ago, near to Kilmallock, Co Limerick, Ireland
Kilmallock Collegiate Church
Dedicated to the saints St Peter and St Paul, the church was built in the 13c. It differs in that it was served by a community of clerics - a college, which did not follow a monastic rule. In 1600 the sugan Earl of Desmond surrendered to the Crown in the church. His successor, James, 15th Earl of Desmond attended a Protestant service here causing such great offence among his subjects, that they rebelled against him.
