Bridgetown Priory was founded for the Canons Regular of St Augustine by Alexander FitzHugh Roche between 1206 and 1216. It was colonised by monks from Newtown trim and St Thomas's, Dublin. By the end of the 13th century it had become the chief burial place of the Roches.
   
 
The church, on the N side of the cloister, is divided into two parts. The eastern section has 13th-century lancet windows and a good 15th-century tomb niche. The three lancet windows were reduced in size in the 15th or 16th century.
