What is recorded here

Within burial ground (LI024-010002-). There is no obvious surface trace of a church here nor is one marked on the OS six-inch maps. However, according to the OS Letter Books (O'Flanagan 1929, 42) this was the site 'of the old Church of this Parish' (Aglishcormick) though 'not a vestige now remains.' According to Westropp (1904-5, 455) the church was called 'Roilig Choluimcille, or Teampul na Cairrge'. Holy well (LI024-010003-) c. 50m to W. Site described in 1840 as following; 'a very short distance south west of a rock called Carraig Choluim, there is a small burial ground now (almost) entirely out of use, called by the people variously, Roilig Choluim Cille, Teampull na Cairrge and Teampull Pairc na Cairrge. There is no sign of the walls of an old church' (OSL, 41). Compiled by: Denis Power Revised by: Caimin O'Brien Date of revised upload: 04 January 2019
