Grave Yard

Situated on the N bank of the River Suir. The C of I church of Kilculliheen is on the probably site of the nunnery (WA009-008----), whose church had become parochial at the time of the Supression in 1540. It is within a subrecatangular graveyard (dims. c. 75m NE-SW; c. 70m NW-SE), but there are no indications of the ancient foundation. Archaeological monitoring (08N0119) associated with building work at Abbey Lodge in the N extremity of the graveyard uncovered some 19th century headstones, but no medieval material (Kearns 2008).
