In graveyard (14566). No visible surface trace of parish church of Clonfert. This was reported 'in repair' in 1615, but abandoned by 1694 (Brady 1863, vol. 2, 129-30); no church shown here on 1842 OS 6-inch map. According to Allen (1973, 18), it was 'a small building, consisting of a chancel and nave'. According to local information, church was situated inside S boundary of oldest part of graveyard (to SE), and part of it uncovered when grave dug in 1940s.
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.
