What is recorded here

Kill of the Grange is a pre-Norman church complex on a low green rise where a stone font once stood before moving inside Deansgrange. The graveyard, holly well, bullaun stone and cross bases still mark the old laneway, suggesting baptism, burial and quiet prayer continued long after the first builders left.

Situated on a low rise, in a green area, NE of Kill Abbey road. A stone font which came originally from Kill of the Grange is now located inside the Church of Ireland at Deansgrange (DU023-016----) (Healy 1975, 1-19). The site is located within a complex which includes a pre-Norman church with a late medieval chancel (DU023-015001-), a graveyard (DU023-015002-), a holly well (DU023-015003-) a bullaun stone (DU023-015007-), a graveslab (DU023-015005-), the base of a stone cross (DU023-015008-), and two crosses (DU023-015004) from the former laneway into the graveyard which are now in the care of the OPW in Trim, county Meath.
