What is recorded here

Ennisboyne formed part of the episcopal lands of the diocese of Glendalough and may have been the site of an Early Christian church. It was probably run as an ecclesiastical manor and was first mentioned as a borough in 1597. The parish church of St Baoithin or Baithin (WI031-020001-) is referred to in 1322. (MacNeill 1950, 168; Bradley and King 1989, 44-5). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wicklow' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 17 December 2008
