What is recorded here
Indicated is a roofless O'Duignan mausoleum at Fenagh, County Leitrim, Ireland, built beside the large church and marked by a 1671 Latin plaque. Its small stone chamber faces the plateau edge, with one surviving light in the east wall and the west doorway broken open to the sky. The family name still stands on its south wall, turning a private grave into a public landmark.
Situated towards the N and E edge of a plateau with rock outcrop. A small roofless chapel or mausoleum (ext. dims 5.05m E-W; 3.45m N-S) of the O’Duignans of Castlefore (LE024-053----) abuts the W end of the S wall of the large church (LE025-096001-) at Fenagh, but the doorway in its W wall is destroyed. There is a single light in the E wall, and the O'Duignan commemorative plaque (LE025-096007-) with a Latin inscription dated 1671 is on the exterior of its S wall.
