Recorded monuments

• MA021-015001 Church
  Description

  In pasture, bordering the N side of a subrectangular graveyard (MA021-015002-), on a low drumlin hill. Late medieval church (16.65m ENE-WSW; 7.15m NNW-SSE) constructed of randomly coarsed masonry (Wall T 0.85m). Both gables survive to their original height. In the ENE wall is a large blocked up window with a slightly rounded head. There is a similar window in the WSW wall. At the ENE end and in the centre of the SSE wall are high wide window openings. There are similar and corresponding windows at the ENE end and in the centre of the NNW wall. At the WSW end of the WSW wall is a wide doorway with a slightly rounded head. A room (ext. dims. 6.85m ENE-WSW; Wall T 0.44m) has been added onto the ENE end of the church of more poorly constructed masonry than that employed in the church. In the centre of the ENE wall is a flat-headed doorway (Wth. 1.26m; H 1.88m). Otherwise the room is featureless. It was presumably at the time the extension was added that the ENE window of the church was blocked up. Compiled by: Paddy O’Donovan and Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 16 November 2017
