Church (in ruins) — Killeeneen More

Within a graveyard (GA096-121001-) in Killeeneen village. This rectangular late-medieval church (>13.4m E-W; 8.5m N-S) is poorly preserved. All that survives is the S side-wall, the reconstructed W gable and the return of the N side-wall (L 3.3m); the latter two walls are heavily overgrown with ivy. The only surviving architectural feature is a pointed-arch doorway in the S wall. However, a number cut and dressed stones have been reused to mark the line of N wall of the church and along the pathway at the SW end of the church; the arch of a round-headed window is visible against the S end of the W gable (information from M. Doddy 1988). There are 23 graveslabs in the interior of the church dating from the late 18th century to the late 20th century. A possible baptismal font from the church is embedded in the ground to the S of the doorway.
