On a visit to the island you will discover the ruins of an old church, built on the site of a much earlier Christian foundation. Thought to date back to the time of St Patrick who used the River Bann to navigate to the island to meet with Taoide to found an early Christian settlement. On the island is a stone known as the Bullaun Stone featuring a hole that holds water. The Bullaun Stone is most likely associated with the first monastic settlement, however local anecdote has it that the hole in the stone was made by St. Patrick as he knelt to pray. The spire was built beside the church for Bishop Harvey in the late 1700s who wanted a view of a spire from his dwelling in Bellaghy.

Visitor Attractions 38 Castlecaulfield Castle - Castlecaulfield Sir Toby Caulfield, later Lord Charlemont, fought for Queen Elizabeth I in Spain and in Ireland against Hugh O Neill. He was granted lands in Ballydonnelly by King James I where he built his manor house between 1611 and 1619. The castle was largely undefended, three storeys high and U-shaped in plan. It was described by the King s Surveyor in 1619 as the fairest building in the north. The castle was badly burnt in the Irish Rebellion of 1641 and was partially rehabilitated by the Caulfields in the 1660s. There is evidence of its occupation into the late 1700s when it functioned as a residence for the Caulfield s Rent Collector and used by local Yeomen. The castle took on an ecclesiastical role from 1767 until the current church was built in the village in 1841. 40 U.S. Grant Ancestral Homestead - Dungannon Explore the cottage of the Simpson family with close ties to Ulysses Simpson Grant, the Commander of the victorious Union troops in the American Civil War.

It is referred to in the Annals in 810 & 838. The visible remains on the site are of the Medieval parish church which was destroyed in 1380. The sandstone cross is set west of the church and has been called archaic and primitive but it is clearly unfinished. The cross is 2m tall and consists of a tapering shaft surmounted by a circular head. A ringed cross has been light tooled on the east face. A flat boss was worked and straight lines marked on the west face but the stone was not further cut back, perhaps as a result of a flaw on the south side.
