What is recorded here

Marked on the 1841 edition of the OS 6-inch map. The site of this church was indicated by a heap of stones (O'Hanlon and O'Leary 1907, vol. 1, 192). No visible surface remains survive. Field was sown with barley at time of visit, low-lying marshy area, site was destroyed and stone was removed c. 30 years ago. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Laois' (Dublin Stationery Office, 1995) compiled by P. David Sweetman, Olive Alcock and Bernie Moran. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 17 December 2007
A local church or high cross; wider significance not recorded.

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.
