Slightly raised area towards W end of graveyard (14616) marks site of church, shown on 1842 OS 6-inch map as rectangular structure (c. 12m E-W; c. 7m N-S). Trace of church still evident in early 20th century (Grove White 1905-25, vol. 2, 246) but Bowman (1934, 431-2) could found no trace. Site of parish church of Kilcorcoran. Reported 'in ruins' in 1615, and again in 1774 (Brady 1863, vol. 2, 252). Early ecclesiastical enclosure (13891) immediately W of graveyard. 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
