What is recorded here

On a tree-covered island in Lough Cutra. This rectangular church (int. dims. 10.1m E-W; 4.4m N-S) is poorly preserved. The N and S walls are much collapsed, only a short return of the N wall (L 2.9m; wall Wth 0.62m) extends off the W gable. Both gables survive, the E one is heavily overgrown with ivy. A gap in the S wall indicates the site of the doorway. The only architectural feature visible is a single-light cusped ogee-headed window in the E gable. Traces of an internal dividing wall lie immediately to the E of the doorway. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 27 January 2020
