A church is shown on the Down Survey Barony map (1656-1658) in Carrowkelly townland. It is indicated in the NE of the townland, on the S bank of the Rosserk River, which serves as the townland boundary. On the 1838 OS 6-inch map an area bordering the river mouth is named ‘Glebe’, indicating church lands. Earthworks (MA022-084----), low irregular banks and undulations, border the river bank, but the exact location of the church is unknown. There is a Holy Well (MA022-083001-) on the opposite, N bank of the river, and Rosserk Abbey (MA022-062001-) is located c. 400m to N.

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.
