- GA097-148001 Church
Description
In the NE sector of a graveyard (GA097-148003-) in rolling pastureland. This late-medieval rectangular church (int. dims. 13.2m E-W; 5.7m N-S; wall T 0.9m) is constructed of randomly coursed well-dressed and mortared limestone. It is heavily overgrown with ivy. The N wall (H 1.6-3m) is featureless apart from a small broken window at its W end. The E gable (H c. 1m) is largely collapsed. The S wall (H 3.5m) stands almost to its full height. A broken lintelled doorway is visible towards it W end and to its E end the embrasure of a window survives. Internally beneath this window there is a fluted piscina set into a pointed arched alcove. The W gable (H c. 5m) stands to its original height. A small window is visible near the top of it. A dividing wall (H 3.5m; T 0.6m) was subsequently inserted towards the W end of the church. A partially collapsed doorway at its S end accesses a small barrel-vaulted chamber (5.7m N-S; 2.8m E-W). Neither the dividing wall nor the vault are keyed into the N and S side-wall of the church. It is unclear how access was gained to the chamber overhead where the vault partially obscures the window in noted above in the N wall. The interior of the church is overgrown and contains a number of graves. Some architectural fragments are also visible but the broken stoup noted by Cody (pers. comm.) just inside and to the right of the S doorway was not evident. There is a standing stone (GA097-148002-) c. 25m to the N. (O'Flanagan 1927a, Vol. 1, 474). Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 7 April 2020
- GA097-148002 Standing stone
Description
In level pastureland c. 25m to the N of a church (GA097-148001-) and graveyard (GA097-148003-). This standing stone consists of a smooth granite pillar stone (H 1.1m; max. Wth 1m; T 0.4m). It is subrectangular in plan with rounded corners and is aligned N-S. (Cody 1989, 165). Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 18 December 2019
- GA097-148003 Graveyard
Description
In rolling pastureland. This subrectangular graveyard (40m E-W; 30m N-S) is enclosed by a modern stone wall. Access is gained via a gateway and stile in the S wall. A medieval church (GA097-148001-) occupies the NE sector. The graveyard is heavily overgrown, particularly the N end where the graves are completely obscured. Legible headstones date from the 19th and 20th centuries and it is still in use. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 7 April 2020
- GA097-149 Ringfort - rath
Description
In low-lying marshy grassland c. 22m to the N of a stream. This possible rath (diam. 25.5m), in fair condition, is defined by an earthen bank (Wth 1.3-2.3m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 0.8m) which is overgrown with bushes. No visible surface trace survives from E to S. A field wall cuts across the monument from N to S. Possibly a rath that was re-used as a tree-ring enclosure.
