What is recorded here

The White Church in Edenderry stands as a scheduled medieval site where a graveyard, bullaun and holy well still mark the ground. Its layers stretch from early Christian times through the medieval period, suggesting continuous worship at one unusual place. People may have drawn water, cut stones or buried their dead beside the same rocks for centuries.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MULTIPERIOD CHURCH & GRAVEYARD with BULLAUN & HOLY WELL: THE WHITE CHURCH. Recorded period: MEDIEVAL; UNCERTAIN; E.C./MED; E.CHRIST.. Recorded protection: Scheduled. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.

Medieval Christian church and graveyard with earlier elements, possibly dating to the Early Christian period, associated with a bullaun stone and holy well. The site reflects the continuity of religious use and the spiritual significance of water and stone in early Irish Christianity.
