What is recorded here

Kilcorney parish church has vanished entirely except one limestone block re-used as a gravemarker. The block preserves the head of a double ogee-headed window, and its late-medieval curve still catches light in the graveyard. A whole house of prayer may have stood there, echoed by voices now lost, but only this much of its shape remains for anyone to touch or remember.
