There is some evidence from the 15th and 16th century for a church in this townland (Westropp 1904-5, 391) but, as Westropp notes, it's location is 'forgotten in the townland' (ibid.).
Westropp (ibid.) recorded the following about Kilquane; 'Near Riddlestown, or Ballinriddele,
Kylcuwan, in Offargus, 1452 (rental), Kyllcohan, in Rathkeale, in Togh of Ffarrensesseragh, 1586 (Peyton, p. 107). W. Trenchard held Kilcoan, Corgraig, High and Low Shannid, and Kilkosgran (Excheq. Inq. 41, xxxvi Eliz.). Site - Forgotten in the townland'.

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.
