What is recorded here

In 1595 'the Hospital, Termon-Irenagh, or Corbeship' of 'Clonoghrir' was endowed with nine small cartrons' (Gwynn and Hadcock 1970, 347). Clonoghrir has been identified with Ballynakill (McNamee 1942b). The exact location of this 'hospital' is unknown but it probably stood in the vicinity of the church (LF013-045002-).

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.
