What is recorded here

Situated in woodland on the N side of the public road which marks the townland boundary with Ballynagall. A quarry is located E of the site. On the N side of Kilmaglish graveyard (WM012-122001-) are the poorly preserved remains of an ivy-covered rectangular chapel (approx. dims. 14.6m E-W; 7.3m N-S; wall T 0.7m; max. H 1.25m). The chapel was entered through a destroyed doorway (Wth 1.1m) in the S wall located off centre to W. The N wall of the chapel forms the N boundary wall of the graveyard. The headstone belonging to Charles William Lewinge of Levington Park who died in 1868 has been erected against the inner face of the N wall of the church directly opposite the doorway. No other features visible. Possibly the remains of a C of I church dating from the 17th or 18th century. No church or chapel is marked in this location on the 1655-9 Down Survey map of Tyfarnan parish (NLI, MS 723-4). Compiled by: Frank Coyne and Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 5 March 2018
