What to see
St Flannan's site is shared with an even older building - the 12th century St Flannan's Oratory, estimated to have been built circa 1100. The cathedral is surrounded by the graveyard, a very peaceful place of rest. The earliest marked graves are those of Bishop Roan 1692 and Elisabeth Brown 1719
