What is recorded here

Ecclesiastical enclosure in Whitechurch is an ecclesiastical enclosure in Whitechurch, County Tipperary, Ireland. Killanin and Duignan described the church as surrounded by an ancient circular enclosure, and the present stone-walled graveyard may form the southwest quadrant of that larger roughly circular enclosure. Faint traces of the possible enclosure appear on the north side of the road opposite the church in a 19 July 1970 aerial photograph.

According to Killanin and Duignan (1967, 133) the church at Whitechurch (TS81-010001-) is surrounded by 'an ancient, circular enclosure'. It is possible that the present stone-walled graveyard (TS081-010003-) forms the SW quadrant of a larger, roughly circular enclosure. Faint traces of this possible enclosure are visible on the N side of the road, opposite the church, on an aerial photograph (CUCAP 19 July 1970 BDS 24).
