 St. Tudwal's Island East was once home to a monastery. The priory was mentioned in 1291, last mentioned in 1511 and the priory church described as desolate in 1540.
A small building is all that remains, possibly 18th C when the island was farmed, turned into a chapel in 1886. A concrete floor was inserted in the 1930's. Traces of an extensive network of paths represent a monastic garden associated with a short lived monastic revival in 1886-7 There is a fresh water spring.
About 500m x 200m with a high point of about 38m. The island is privately owned. Recent owner: author Carla Lane (for animal sanctuary).
