What is recorded here
On the E side of Kiltormer village. According to the OS Letters (O'Flanagan 1927a, Vol. 2, 113) 'the old protestant church of this parish' stood in this graveyard [GA099-127----] and it was in use 'until a few years ago, when it was thrown down; the foundation of it merely is now discernible.' No visible surface trace of this structure now survives but a possible finial cross (GA099-127001-) noted in the SE of the graveyard may be associated with it. A holy well (GA099-123----) lies c. 55m to the E.
