What is recorded here

On the E edge of an ecclesiastical enclosure (MA082-035004-). This church is indicated as ‘Ch. (in Rns.)’ on the 1916 OS 6-inch map where it is depicted as an E−W rectangular building, defined by walls on the S, W and N sides, but open on the E side which coincides with the enclosing wall of the ecclesiastical enclosure. A slightly sunken rectangular area (10m E–W; 11m N–S), outlined by low scarps, preserves the outline of the church. There is another church (MA082-035001-) 30m to SW.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record MA082-035002
