Templebeg/An Teampall Beag: A shallow rectangular depression, c. 9m E-W x 5m N-S, is all that remains of the church and graveyard marked on the OS maps. In the mid-19th century, the site consisted of an enclosed area, about 60.35 x 40.23m, within which was the ruin of a building, 8.53 x 4.57m (OSNB Ventry, 27). The site lies on elevated ground at the S side of Ventry Harbour.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 978. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
