A local church; originally built before 1692, with no specific builder recorded. Its wider significance is not documented, though a bullaun stone in the graveyard suggests possible early Christian activity.

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
