What is recorded here

Marshalstown graveyard still marks the vanished church with a rectangular ghost line, though no wall or stone remains for anyone to touch. The 1842 survey drew that dotted boundary across soil already worn smooth by footsteps and forgetting. People may have prayed inside before decay took the roof, yet even the church's own purpose has blurred into uncertainty.
In centre of graveyard (14580). No visible surface trace of church. 1842 OS 6-inch map uses dotted line to shows rectangular structure (long axis NE-SW), named 'Site of church'. Lies within parish of Marshalstown, status of church uncertain. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
