What is recorded here
Present remains consist of a 19th century C of I church and modern graveyard which probably dates to the 1700s. Nothing remains of the earlier church (OF030-016----) which was located in the present graveyard (O' Flanagan 1933, vol. 2, 6). Small building in the centre of the graveyard that is indicated on the OS 6-inch map as a 'church in ruins' and is now used as a 19th century burial structure, may have been the site of an earlier church. Located to the NW of the C of I church are the ruins of Eglish castle (OF030-015----).
