What is recorded here
Kilbronoge holds a four-metre stone foundation beside a church, waiting for the overgrowth to reveal whether it was a dwelling, a kitchen or a private chapel. The stones still mark an east wall, but the rest has surrendered to soil and vegetation. That sudden disappearance suggests the building stopped being useful rather than dying in disaster.
Within an ecclesiastical enclosure (CO140-043001-), c. 6m NW of a church (CO140-043004-). The remains of a possible structure (4m N-S; H 0.8m), which is defined by stone foundations (4m N-S; H 0.8m) along the E side, are visible in this location. The full extent of the structure could not be accurately gauged due to overgrowth.
