What is recorded here

This is possibly a Penal church described as 'Kilmaline R.C. Chapel (Site of)' and depicted faintly as a rectangular structure (dims. c. 15m N-S; c. 8m E-W) on the 1840 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. However, It is regarded as an early church and graveyard called Molua's church (Power 1952, 161). Situated in pasture on an E-facing slope, it is not visible at ground level. Power, Rev. P. (1952) The placenames of the Decies. (second ed.) Cork University Press. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Waterford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 23rd March, 2011. Compiled by: Michael Moore.
