What is recorded here
Thirty metres of green silence hide a church where three cross slabs still stand beside a broken font. The graveyard sits on an old pilgrimage road toward Glendalough, marking a place where people walked through Kildare to reach St Kevin. Later graves came and went, but the stone crosses remained, keeping the older prayer alive beneath the valley sky.
Church ruins (KD039-014----) in S quadrant of sub-rectangular shaped graveyard (approx. dims. 44m N-S x 75m E-W).
