What is recorded here

Situated on a gentle E-facing slope in a field named 'Church Field' on the 1838 OS 6-inch map. The graveyard consists of a D-shaped enclosure (dims. 45m NE-SW; 30m NW-SE) defined by an earth and stone bank with external drystone facing. No visible grave-markers and no indication of a fosse or entrance. A much larger D-shaped enclosure (WI034-014001-) (dims. 80m NW-SE; 90m NE-SW) shown only on the 1838 map (encircling the smaller enclosure) is not visible at ground level. The site of a possible souterrain marked on the map as 'cave' lies immediately to the W (WI034-014003-). There are no visible remains of the church. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wicklow' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 30 July 2013

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
