Site of cruciform R. C. Chapel of post medieval date depicted on the 1838 ed. OS 6-inch map where it is shown standing outside the graveyard immediately to the S. No surface remains visible of this levelled church known locally as 'Kilmurry Chapel'. In 1840 the Ordnance Survey Field Name Books recorded the following; 'This chapel was thrown down and removed to the S. corner of Ballyvorneen, at the parish boundary of Ballybrood, where it was rebuilt' (OSNB).
Westropp (1904-5, 441) recorded that 'the modern R. C. church was built in 1820 on the old site'.
