What is recorded here

To the S of a church (KD014-016----) in a graveyard (KD014-016001-) in the NE sector of a possible early ecclesiastical enclosure (KD014-016004-) which is the site of a possible Early Christian monastery (KD014-016003-) and is the original location of the fine, 13th century 'Castledillon Stone' effigy (KD014-016002-). Burials concentrated in a small area immediately S of the church are marked by small, uninscribed field stones, in occasional, random lines, suggestive of a children's burial ground.
