What is recorded here

This monument is indicated and named 'Old R.C. Chapel' on the OS 1st. ed. 6-inch sheet. There is no visible surface trace and a modern bungalow and garden occupy the site. Davies (1948, 96-7) had speculated that it may have been used for Catholic workship after the Reformation and noted only two surviving stones of the former church. Apparently an architectural fragment from the church was incorporated into a grotto beside an early 19th century church in Mountnugent. A stone cross (CV042-001002-) is situated at the W end of the field in which the church was located. (O'Donovan 1995, no. 1608) Revised by: Paul Walsh Date of revised upload: 23 May 2016
