Indicated

On the E-facing slope of Ardcarn Hill. Rectangular graveyard (dims 85m E-W; 60m N-S) on the site of the medieval parish church (RO006-103001-) defined by a mortared stone wall. A sandstone jam of a medieval doorway is used as a headstone as is a fragment of a window surround. A limestone memorial plaque erected by Cormac MacDermot, possibly a son of Owen Mac Conor Og of Aghacarra (Mac Dermot 1996, 360), in honour of his wife Elinor Crean in 1688 is situated just E of the present Church of Ireland church in the graveyard. There is a cross-inscribed stone (RO006-103019-) just S of the E end of the present church which was revamped in 1860 at the NW edge of the graveyard. A new graveyard (dims c. 100m NE-SW; c. 70m NW-SE) defined by masonry walls was built by 1914 and it contains the cross-inscribed stone (RO006-103006-) and a second cross-inscribed stone (RO006-103020-) identified by Mary B. Timoney in 2015. Archaeological supervision (14E0166) of the laying of a drain in the new graveyard produced no archaeological material (Timoney 2016).
