Church in Killowen

A church is indicated to the N of the Kenmare River on an early 17th-century map of Kerry in the British Museum (published in the Kerry Archaeological Magazine 1917, 204-6). The exact location of the church is not known though it could possibly be the precursor of the Church of Ireland church (KE093-115001-) at Killowen which was rebuilt in 1814. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 30 May 2011
