Site of R. C. Chapel — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Situated on a fairly level landscape and on the E side of a N-S minor road. It is also on the S side of a W-E farm lane that curves N just to the NW of the site. It is marked faintly on the 1839 ed. of the OS 6-inch map as a rectangular structure (dim. c. 10m N-S) where it is described as the site of an R C Chapel in italic lettering, with farm buildings c. 20m to the SE and SW. It may have been a Catholic chapel of the penal period, but there are no visible remains of a structure, enclosure or burial at ground level in an area that is densely overgrown. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wexford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1996). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload/revision: 16 August, 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.
