What is recorded here

According to Carrigan (1905, vol. 3, 267), 'Locally the townland of Cellarstown East is always called Killeen. It has received the latter name from a most ancient church [KK020-064001-] that stood here on a circular rise, resembling a moat [KK020-063----/KK020-064003-], in the northern extremity of a field called the “Killeen.” There is now no trace of the church, or of its graveyard [KK020-064002-]'. 'Killeen' is indicated on the 6-inch OS revision of 1900 in this townland associated with a house and farmyard. There precise location of the church, graveyard and enclosure are unknown.

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.
