No designated site (Special Area of Conservation, Special Protection Area, Natural Heritage Area or proposed one) touches the townland of Kilcolman.

## Recorded monuments (Sites and Monuments Record, National Monuments Service)

- MA091-023001: Church, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMA091-023001-. In pasture, located within a graveyard (MA091-023003-), towards the base of a SW–facing slope. At the base of the slope the ground levels out to an expanse of damp pasture, with a holy well (MA091-023002) located 20m to WNW. This medieval parish church dedicated to St. Colman gave its name to the townland, and is indicated at 'Killcollman' on the 1656-58 Down Survey barony map. The ruins of the church stand on level ground in the SE quadrant of the graveyard. It is a rectangular building (c. 7.5m NNE–SSW; c. 18m WNW–ESE) with walls constructed of roughly coursed limestone with a rubble core. The W gable (T 1.34m) stands to almost its full original height but the N and S ends of the wall are broken and crumbling. The mid-section of the N wall survives to a height of 3m but elsewhere along its length is reduced to heaps of loose stone. Heaps of stones also define the line of the E gable, a short section of which remains intact at its junction with the N wall. The S wall can be traced only as a low sod-covered stony rise, overlain or abutted by several graves. The interior of the church is strewn with loose stones, and is largely obscured by overgrowth. A few fragments of worked/cut stone, one of which appears to be a fragment of a window or door surround, were noted in a moss-covered pile of loose rubble close to the N wall. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 9 February 2022
- MA091-023002: Ritual site - holy well, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMA091-023002-. In lowlying damp pasture, located 20m to WNW of a graveyard (MA091-023003-) within which is a ruined church (MA091-023001-). The well is not named on the 1838 and 1920 OS 6-inch maps but the 1838 OS Letters 1838 records that it was 'called the Well of Kilcolman. At it stations are performed on Good Fridays.' (O’Flanagan 1927, 448 (186)). The well consisted of a natural spring and is no longer in use as a holy well. A modern pump-house now stands on the site, and a field drain channels the water to SW to intersect with other field ditches. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 9 February 2022
- MA091-023003: Graveyard, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMA091-023003-. In pasture, located towards the base of a SW-facing slope. At the base of the slope the ground levels out to an expanse of damp pasture, where a holy well (MA091-023002-) located 20m to WNW. The graveyard encompasses a square area (53m NE–SW; 54m NW–SE) and is enclosed by a wall (Wth 0.6m; 1.2m) of roughly coursed limestone, bordered on the NE side by a road. The interior slopes markedly from NE down to SW, but levels out at the S–SE where the ruins of a medieval church (MA091-023001-) are located. The headstones are mainly of the ‘Celtic cross’ type and predominately date to the second half of the 19th century/early 20th century. Some horizontal grave slabs also occur. The inscriptions/dates on many gravestones are obscured by lichen. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 9 February 2022
- MA091-024: Enclosure, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMA091-024----. In pasture, on rising ground. A circular enclosure is marked at roughly this location on an 1811 estate map (NLI Ms. 2713); it is not shown on any edition of the OS 6-inch maps. There is no visible trace at ground level. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 9 February 2022

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
