Recorded monuments
- ME033-026 Church
Description
Located on a W-facing col with Fourknocks ridge rising over it c. 0.7km to the N and a slight knoll c. 300m to the S. A church at Clonalwy is listed in the ecclesiastical taxation (1302-06) of Pope Nicholas IV (Cal. doc. Ire. 5, 253). Ussher (1622) describes the church of Clonalvey as indifferently repaired and the chancel as ruined (Erlington 1847-64, lxv). According to the Dopping (1682-5) and Regal (1695) visitations the church of St John the Baptist was unrepaired since 1640 (Ellison 1971, 36). The parish church of Clonalvey is within a rectangular graveyard (dims c. 55m NE-SW: c. 45m NW-SE) defined by masonry walls with a NE-SW road outside it to the SE. The graveyard has headstones dating from 1743 to the present. The church (ext. dims 23.5m E-W; 7.3m N-S) is reduced to the W wall with putlog-holes and a destroyed window together with an attached section (L 5.4m) of the S wall. The church is an overgrown sunken area but an attached and overgrown sacristy (ext. dims 6.85m E-W; 3.8m N-S) at the E of the N wall survives as featureless walls (H 2m). Souterrain (ME033-027----) is c. 85m to the SSW. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload/revision: 9 February 2015
