What is recorded here

There is no trace of a church in this townland, which was recorded by O'Donovan in 1841 (OSL, 126) as the site of an old church; even then there was no trace of walls remaining. The above description is derived from C. Toal, ‘North Kerry Archaeological Survey’. Dingle. Brandon in association with FAS Training and Employment Authority (1995), no. 953. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 3 August 2013

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.

The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
