What is recorded here

In graveyard (14608). No visible surface remains of church; marked as rectangular structure (c. 12m E-W; c. 7m N-S), defined by broken line, on 1842 OS 6-inch map and named 'Church (Site of)'. Shown on Down Survey (1655-6) barony map as Kilcloghbane; locally known as Kilcoghlan (Power 1932, 73). Probably the church at Mitchelstown presented for repair in 1682 (Brady 1863, vol. 2, 68) and described as 'chapel-of-ease' in repair 1774 (ibid.); superseded when new C of I parish church at George Street (14703) opened in 1801. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
