At Balleeghan on the shores of Lough Swilly stand the ruins of an early 16th century Franciscan abbey in the Gothic style, founded by Hugh Dubh O Donnell, who was a chieftain in this area prior to the Plantation. The abbey was annexed and used as a Meeting House by the first settlers, who were mainly Presbyterians from Scotland; the adjoining house was occupied by the Cunningham family. A surviving feature of the abbey is a striking window in the East End that is unique in West Ulster. A horizontal tombstone inside the abbey ruins is inscribed to Thomas Cunningham, 17th April 1651. It bears a carving of the Cunningham arms and a skull and crossbones - this may have been to ward off any grave robbers, thinking it referred to Typhoid fever.

ManorcunninghamMainéar Uí ChuinneagáinCategory:Manorcunningham Townland, Raymoghy Parish, County Donegal1901 Census, 1911 Census
At the Plantation of Ulster, James Cunningham, Laird of Glangarnock, received land grants and founded the village of Manorcunningham around the year 1611. The village of Newtowncunningham (in Allsaints) can also attribute its name to the same family. The plain between Lough Swilly and Lough Foyle in which Manorcunningham is situated is known as the Lagan Valley and was from earliest times known as Maighitha (Plain of Ith). Manorcunningham townland was originally an Irish Clachan (settlement) known as Machaire Mor (the Big Plain). A ring fort, probably the remnants of the original settlement, would have been easily accessible from the sea by Neolithic settlers. Evidence of the Neolithic period is abundant in the region, such as ring forts, sou-terrains and other field monuments dotted all over the local landscape. A number of artifact finds support evidence of settlement and cultivation of the area since the Neolithic period.
