Carved masonry from Navan Abbey

Pieces of the masonry (above) from the Abbey of St. Mary, dating to the late medieval times, were discovered in 1976 when part of the Cavalry Barracks’ wall was knocked down during the construction of the Inner Relief Road.

These are today in the grounds of St. Mary’s Church as part of the Millennium Garden.
