AIA Site Preservation Projects
At the Dominican Priory at Tulsk, County Roscommon, funds will support efforts to conserve and stabilize the existing structures, as well as to further develop the site for tourism, which would benefit local businesses. Upon its renovation, the Priory will be incorporated into a larger project, sponsored by the Roscommon Community Council and the National Monuments Service, which oversees the whole of the medieval village of Tulsk.
