Inch Abbey
Inch Abbey ((アイルランド語:Mainistir na hInse),〔(Inch Abbey: Irish translation ). Department of the Environment. Retrieved 26 August 2012.〕)〔(Inch Abbey: Ulster-Scots translation ). Department of the Environment (Northern Ireland). Retrieved 16 September 2011.〕 is a large, ruined monastic site 0.75 miles (1.2 km) north-west of Downpatrick, County Down, Northern Ireland, on the north bank of the River Quoile in a hollow between two drumlins and featuring early Gothic architecture. The site is mostly in State Care and is at grid ref: J477455, off the main road to Belfast.
==Pre-Norman site==
The site was originally on an island ((アイルランド語:Inis)) in the Quoile Marshes. The pre-Norman Celtic monastic settlement here, known as ''Inis Cumhscraigh'' (or ''Inis Cuscraidh''),〔 was in existence by the year 800. In 1002 it was plundered by the Vikings led by Sitric, King of the Danes, who came up the Quoile with a fleet from the sea. The Vikings plundered the settlement again in 1149. Its large earthwork enclosure has been traced from aerial photographs.〔 On the ground, the early bank and ditch can be followed along the line of trees on the eastern boundary of the site, and partly along the western boundary. The buildings of the early monastery would have been made of timber.〔
