Nessan the Duke of 400 AD had three sons, and named a monastery in their honor. the monastery is on the island called Ireland's Eye. The name of the island is 'Inis Mac Neasain' or the 'Island of the sons of Nessan', the monastery has the same name in Gaelic.
The monastery is good craic for a quick visit during the summer. Not a huge amount there today but an interesting place all the same.
