The original church in Duleek was founded by St Cianán in the 5th century. The village name Duleek itself is believed to come from the Irish for stone church. The ruin we see today dates from around the 13th century. Unfortunately, when I visited there was a group of teenagers up to no good in the graveyard. The local community should provide alternatives for them. The adjacent Church of Ireland church is now a restaurant.
