The medevial church dates to the 1320s and is today used by the Church of Ireland as its place of worship in Galway City. In the mid 2000s, it was used by a local Catholic church as its place of worship whilst their church was being refurbished. It is also regularly used for worship by the Romanian and Russian Orthodox Churches, and the Malankara Mar Thoma Syrian Church in Galway City.
Legend has it that Christopher Columabus stopped to pray here when he visited in 1477.
