Chapel

What is recorded here

No wall, roof or stone marker remains at the Site of R.C. Chapel in County Galway. The first edition of the Ordnance Survey six-inch map named it only as a site, implying the chapel had already vanished from sight. It stood within a known enclosure, yet the earth keeps no visible trace of its shape. Forgetting completed what decay began.
Within an enclosure (GA007-063002-). Named on 1st ed. of OS 6-inch map as 'Site of' suggesting that little or nothing of its fabric then remained. No visible surface trace survives. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'. Compiled by Olive Alcock, Kathy de hÓra and Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999). Date of upload: 05 August 2010
