Recorded monuments

• MA021-041001 Church
  Description

  In pasture, located on an NNE−SSW ridge, in what is otherwise wet, lowlying ground. This church, from which the townland derives its name, is indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as a rectangular building, oriented NW−SE, named ‘Killogunra Church in Ruins’; the building is not shown on the 1923 edition, but the location is annotated ‘Killogunra Church (Site of)’ and ‘Burial Gd.’ (MA021-041002-). Grassed-over wall footings, defining a roughly square area (14.2m ENE-WSW; 13m NNE-SSW; Wall T 0.8m) can be seen. The interior is filled with rubble. According to local tradition, a stone in the WSW wall is said to have miraculous powers. The wall footings may incorporate remains of the church or, they may define an area used for burials.

• MA021-041002 Graveyard
  Description

  In pasture, located on an NNE−SSW ridge, in what is otherwise wet, lowlying ground. This graveyard, associated with a church (MA021-041002-), is not indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map. A roughly square area, annotated ‘Burial Gd.’ and ‘Kilogunra Church (Site of)’, is shown on the 25-inch plan; on the later 1922 OS 6-inch map, the location is annotated as ‘Burial Gd.’ and ‘Kilogunra Church (Site of)’ but the outline of the burial ground is no longer indicated. Grassed-over wall footings, defining a roughly square area (14.2m ENE-WSW; 13m NNE-SSW; Wall T 0.8m) can be seen here. The interior is filled with rubble. According to local tradition, a stone in the WSW wall is said to have miraculous powers. It is unclear to what extent the wall footings represent the remains of the church or, perhaps, define an area used for burials. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 16 November 2017
