What is recorded here
The church of Lissonuffy (RO029-099001-) is within a rath (RO029-099003-) which was nearly removed when the rectangular graveyard (dims 50m E-W; 44m N-S) defined by masonry walls was superimposed on it c. 1820, according to J. O'Donovan, writing in the 1830s (O'Flanagan 1931, vol. 2, 44-5; Herity 2010, 118). Within the graveyard is a cupmarked stone (RO029-099006-), a cross-inscribed stone (RO029-099004-) and a bullaun stone (RO029-099005-).
