Ecclesiastical enclosure in Kilcanoran

Ecclesiastical enclosure

What is recorded here

Situated at the bottom of the E-facing slope of a drumlin. The church (RO011-099001-) is described as the foundations of an E-W building within a rectangular area (RO011-099002-), perhaps a graveyard, (Gannon 1972). These features are no longer visible, but an oval grass-covered enclosure (dims 37m plus E-W; 32m N-S) defined by a slight scarp (H 0.2-1.2m) is traceable NW-SW, but its W and E sides are impinged on by farm buildings, and human burials have been found at the location.
