What is recorded here
According to Carrigan (1905, vol. 3, 267), 'Locally the townland of Cellarstown East is always called Killeen. It has received the latter name from a most ancient church [KK020-064001-] that stood here on a circular rise, resembling a moat [KK020-063----/KK020-064003-], in the northern extremity of a field called the “Killeen.” There is now no trace of the church, or of its graveyard [KK020-064002-]'. 'Killeen' is indicated on the 6-inch OS revision of 1900 in this townland associated with a house and farmyard. There precise location of the church, graveyard and enclosure are unknown.
