What is recorded here
Domnach Caoide stands in Bunowen, County Tyrone, preserving a medieval church and graveyard where local life still moves around old stone. The name suggests a dedicated worship place, while the buried depth hints that people kept returning long after first building. It is the kind of quiet country church where prayer, marriage, burial and memory all belonged to the same ground.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as CHURCH & GRAVEYARD: DOMNACH CAOIDE. Recorded period: MED/L.MED; POST-MED. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
Medieval and post-medieval ecclesiastical site; significance lies in its long-standing use as a place of worship and burial, reflecting the continuity of Christian tradition in the region.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
