Chapel

What is recorded here

At a road junction to S of Glassillaun beach. No visible trace survives of this 18th-C R.C. chapel (info. T. Robinson) but a font from it lies in a field by the shore 200m to NW. There is also a mass-rock c. 210m to NE and a possible wayside cairn site (GA010-042----) 100m to E. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. I - West Galway'. Compiled by Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1993). Date of upload: 05 August 2010

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
