  Midway along N side of graveyard (14430). Fragmentary remains of rectangular church (c. 12.4m E-W; 6.5m N-S); original length uncertain as W end has disappeared. Most of E wall collapsed to foundation level; stump of masonry (L 2m; H c. 5m) stands near S end with wall press. East end of S wall survives (L 6m): blocked wall press near E end; ledge atop of wall probably for wall plate; narrow window with single flat-headed light, 1.7m from SE corner. North wall has similar light, directly opposite, light chamfered externally. Crudely moulded cornices on N and S walls; cornice on N wall partially obscured by later rebuilding. Seven gutter-stones project from external face of N wall. Towards W end of N wall, are remains of doorway (Wth 0.62m); door jambs chamfered externally, arch missing but described by Power (ibid.) as 'narrow, pointed doorway'. Remains of parish church of Kilgullane; late medieval in appearance. Reported as having nave 'in repair', chancel 'in ruins' in 1615, abandoned by 1694 (Brady 1863, vol. 2, 68, 258).
