What is recorded here

Marked as a small cruciform structure (L c. 20m) on the 1839 ed. of the OS 6-inch map where it is described as Cloghbawn R. C. Chapel. It is said to have been burnt in 1798 (Harte 1925, 100-01). A new church was built c. 100m to the S in 1858. There are no visible remains of the older church, which is the first post-Penal Catholic church of Cloghbawn.

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