Overview
Located just to the NW of the centre of Ballymacward graveyard (GA073-016002-). No visible surface trace of this church survives. However, an overgrown level area (c. 15m E-W; c. 8m N-S), free of graves, appears to mark its site and this also corresponds to where it is shown on the OS 6-inch maps. No foundation stones were evident but some loose stone was visible through the long grass. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 23 November 2020
