Cong Abbey, Co Mayo.
This is a little fishing hut where the monks used to fish, the water flows underneath so they would not get cold in the winter.

What an adorable place!! I'd love to go there one day. So pretty. The fishing hut is amazing, I love that. Are they doing anything with it now or does it just stand there like that? I hope someone's keeping an eye on the maintenance ...
yes there was a guy going around keeping an eye on the place, its a tourist attraction, but amazed that you like religious buildings
