What is recorded here

These impressive ecclesiastical remains lie on the E slopes of Carrickgollogan. The church (DU026-050001-) is dedicated to St. Michael the Archangel (O'Brien 1988, 519). The remains are enclosed by a cashel-like structure (diam. c. 130m) which in places is built on a bank. This is visible at the entrance in the NE . Compiled by: Geraldine Stout and Padraig Clancy.

Early Christian ecclesiastical site, likely 7th–10th century. Associated with St. Michael the Archangel, it reflects the spread of Christianity in the region and the use of cashel-like structures for protection.
