The parish church of Castlemore is listed as de Castro Magno in the ecclesiastical taxation of Achonry in 1306 (Cal. doc. Ire. vol. 5, 219). Situated on a low rise. Rectangular grass-covered area (int. dims 12m E-W; 7m N-S) defined by the foundations of much of the S wall (T 0.9m) and the S end of the E wall, but the N and W walls are obscured by grass-covered stone spreads. There is no evidence of an enclosure or of burial, although a graveyard (RO008-033002-) is marked on the 1838 ed. of the OS 6-inch map (Mayo 74). However, the childrens burial ground (RO008-033003-) is immediately to the E, and the Castlemore castle (RO008-032001-) is c. 100m to the W, on the other side of a NE-SW road.
