For once others have a chance because Mr. B isn't right (unless there's a misunderstanding).
So go for it, folks.

Got me stumped,    looks Irish but that might be a trick on Depp's part.

Very true.
Here's another shot of a different friary in the same town: DJI_0033.jpg

And here's a tip:
The first shot is a collegiate church, same as the new one top left in the second shot. And one on the right hand side is a dominican friary.

So could it be the building known as the Rock of Cashel?

No, that's 52 km by car away. Cashel is to the East-North-East of this place.

There's the 13th Century Abbey in the field, but your image seems to be the church just to the south, in the village.

True: The first pic shows the ruined church a few hundred meters from the ruined friary - the old collegiate in a cemetery.
There's a new collegiate church in the left corner of the second pic.

It's amazing. The country is littered with ruins of all denominations.

It definitely is, even more than the UK.
And the abbeys/friarys are mostly rather similar.
