Church in Kilkeany

Marked only on the 1927 ed. of the OS 6-inch map as a rectangular feature (dims. c. 23m NE-SW; c. 15-20m NW-SE) and situated in pasture at the bottom of an E-W valley. This was known as 'Cian's Church' and described as a circular enclosure (Power 1952, 246). It is described locally as a small, featureless rectangular area of scrub which was removed c. 1980. It is not visible at ground level. Power, Rev. P. (1952) The placenames of the Decies. (second ed.) Cork University Press. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 26 October 2010
