Church in Killadoon

It was recorded by the OSL (Herity 2002, 13) that the graveyard of Killadoon (KD011-006002-) contained, ' … some (remaining) portions of the walls of the (old) Church'. OMURETHI (1909-11, 209) records, 'About the year 1294 the churches of Kyledonane (Killadoon … ) … and "Tristyldelane" (KD014-016---) … are reported to be not worth the service of chaplains'. The remains lie to the N of the centre of a graveyard (KD011-006001-). A rectangular depression (int. dims. L 8m E-W; Wth 3.4m; D 0.3-0.6m) is further defined along its E and W ends by sod and ivy-covered stony spreads (Wth along E 6.3m; int H 0.3m; ext H 0.4m; Wth along W 4m; int H 0.9m; ext. H 0.2m) which are the remains of collapsed walling. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 10 June 2011
