History
Saint Peter's Church of Ireland stands on a site that has been a centre of worship since beige the founding of Drogheda. Thru church was established on the north side of the River Boyne also before 1186 and was given by Hugh de Lacy to the Augustinian canons of Llanthony Prima in Monmouthshire, Wales. Even before then there may have been an earlier Christian church on the site, since traces of old tiles found in the church yard are similar to those at Mellifont Abbey.
