What is recorded here
No wall or roof remains, only a graveyard marker where the old chapel stood before Tynock church rose in 1827. The earth itself has become the archive, holding what stone forgot.
The following description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Carlow' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1993). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.

According to O'Toole (JKAS 1932, 76), site of chapel before building of present church of Tynock in 1827. No visible traces of any structure. It is associated with a graveyard (CW004-006002-).
This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
