- MO024-025 Cairn - unclassified
Description
Located on a terrace just below the crest of a W-facing slope. It is depicted on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as a ‘Cromlech’ and it is described as ‘Labbyfirmore’ – the bed of the big men – on the 1907 edition. This is a circular grass and furze-covered cairn (diam. c. 20m) with evidence of three cists. One cist consists of a large capstone supported on two long side-stones and one end-stone. A second cist to the SW is roofed by a single large roof-stone supported by six slender upright stones. The third cist is only visible as portion of what might be a roof-stone buried I in the cairn just S of an E-W field bank that overlies the N part of the cairn. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Monaghan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Revised by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 9 May 2018

- MO024-034001 Church
Description
Situated on a rise between hills at the SE angle of a bay (dims c. 200m N-S; c. 200m E-W) that is at the N end of Lough Egish. This is probably a thirteenth century parochial church, sometimes known as Templemoyle, although no historical references to it are known with certainty. It may have been a chapel-of-ease to Aughnamullen parish church (MO023-011001-), which is at the W end of a very large parish. This church is marked on Jobson’s Map of Ulster of 1590 where it is described as Temple Egas (McKenna 1920, 355). The church is a plain rectangular structure (ext. dims 20.1m E-W; 8.35m N-S), which survives almost complete, apart from the removal of all dressed stone and some gaps in the N and S walls. It had a tall E window, which was probably a single lancet, and there was another tall window towards the E end of the S wall. The doorway towards the W end of the S wall does not survive but the voids for two corbels to support a gallery at the W end are evident as is a destroyed window placed high in the W gable. A large beam-hole in the inner face of the S wall 6.6m from the SE angle is the location of a rood-screen that would divide the church in the ratio of 2:1, but the inner face of the wall on the N side is destroyed. The church is in the northern part of an oval graveyard (max. dims c. 95m NW-SE; c. 50m NE-SW) defined by an earthen bank or scarps with a hedge and by an ENE-WSW stone wall (L c. 35m) at N that probably truncated the graveyard slightly. See the attached images _1 from E; _2 from N The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Monaghan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 30 November 2016
- MO024-034002 Graveyard
Description
Situated on a rise between hills at the SE angle of a bay (dims c. 200m N-S; c. 200m E-W) that is at the N end of Lough Egish. The church known as Templemoyle (MO024-034001-) is in the northern part of an oval graveyard (max. dims c. 95m NW-SE; c. 50m NE-SW) defined by an earthen bank or scarps with a hedge and by an ENE-WSW stone wall (L c. 35m) at N that probably truncated the graveyard slightly. The few headstones date from about 1800 but there are also grave-markers. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revised upload: 30 November 2016
- MO024-039 Well
Description
Situated on a gentle SE-facing slope of a peninsula on the NE side of Lough Egish. When the Franciscans finally left their friary in Monaghan town (MO009-060002-) c. 1690 they probably maintained a presence in the county, although evidence of them is elusive. A report on the state of Popery in 1731 states categorically there were no Franciscans in Monaghan, although they were represented at Chapters of the Order held in Dublin in 1717 and 1729 (McKenna 1922, vol. 1, 13-14). In 1775 a bequest was made to the Franciscans of Lough Egish, and a farmhouse at Lattonfasky was called the Friars Garden while the well was known as the Brothers’ Well (ibid. 1, 369. McKenna (ibid. 1, 356) further records that ‘within living memory’ the eccentric ex-friar named Martin, disowned by his Order and the Bishop, led a congregation at Lattonfasky, so a Franciscan presence was maintained at Lough Egish into the late nineteenth century. The well is depicted only on the 1907 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as ‘Tober na Braher’ – the brothers’ well. The field in which it is situated is attached to a small farmstead that is the only dwelling on the peninsula depicted on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map and was probably occupied by friars in the eighteenth century. The well is an oval structure (dims 1.5m x 0.9m) defined by a masonry wall (H 1.3m) and roofed with four lintels. There is an opening (Wth 0.5m) at W, but it is not a holy well.
