Indicated

Ecclesiastical enclosure

What is recorded here

Indicated preserves the buried heartbeat of a lost church through the living grid of Larrix Street, Main Street and their curving junction. The daimhliagh of St. Cianán stood inside a vast sacred enclosure, but time swallowed its walls and forced its boundary into the roads still walked today. Each turn of that lane may still trace the old perimeter, carrying a forgotten prayer into ordinary foot traffic.
The daimhliagh or stone church of St. Cianán (ME027-038003-)was established within a large ecclesiastical enclosure (dims c. 325m N-S; 380m E-W) that has become fossilised in the street system, being bounded by Larrix St. N-E, Main St. E-S-SW, and a curving lane connecting Main St. and Larrix St. SW-N (Swan 1983, 269).
