The Priory graveyard, Holywood (2)

A slate headstone, with very stylish lettering, marking the grave of Mary McClement who died in the 19th century. Unfortunately the part with the exact date is now missing.

The Priory church and graveyard, Holywood

The Priory stands at the Bangor end of High Street surrounded by modern development. It was built as a parish church in about 1200. It later became a Franciscan friary, reverting to the status of a parish church after restoration in 1615. It became disused in the middle of the 19th century when replaced by a new parish church.
