What is recorded here

Situated on the summit of a drumlin hill within an approximately square graveyard containing modern grave-markers. Davies (1948, 77) noted that 'under Charles I it was recommended that the church be moved to Gortnakesh, as more convenient to the manor-house of Monyehall (CV025-098----) but it does not seem that this was done.' Not visible at ground level. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008
A local church or high cross; wider significance not recorded.
