Part of the monastic complex at Kilmacduagh and located within an early ecclesiastical enclosure (GA128-034015-). This rectangular church (12.7m E-W; 5.8m N-S) dates to c. AD 1200 (Harbison 1975, 95). A cross-slab (GA128-034018-) is incorporated into the internal face of the N wall. Architectural features include a round-headed doorway in the S wall, which appears to have been inserted in the 15th century (ibid.), a narrow pointed window in the E wall and a similar, though partially destroyed, window near the W end of the S wall. The remains of the W gable are featureless. (O’Flanagan 1927a, Vol. 2, 155-8)
