What is recorded here

In rough pasture, on the external W end of the N wall of Kilboglashy graveyard (SL020-109002-). The ruin of a rectangular structure (on an E-W axis) which is inaccessible due to overgrowth. The E wall no longer survives. O'Rorke (1878, 23) described the building as 'internally, thirty-three feet long, and fourteen wide' having been vaulted with stone, and containing 'two apartments at least ... one in the basement, and the other a croft, between vault and roof'. O'Rorke (ibid.) concluded that this, and a similar building (SL020-109004-) c. 30m to S, are associated with the church (SL020-109001-) and may have been the refectory and Abbot's house.
