- TS081-009 Enclosure
Description
On a gentle SE-facing slope in gently undulating terrain, in pastureland. The enclosure is marked as a rectangular wooded area on the 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map. There is no evidence that it was an antiquity apart from a deliberate kink in the townland boundary. The area has been cleared of trees and reclaimed, there are a lot of undulations in the field but none form a definable rectangular enclosure. The small area partially outlined on the 2nd (1906), incorporating a kink in the townland boundary, has also been removed. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 07 January 2014
- TS081-010001 Church
Description
On the crest of a natural rise in gently undulating terrain, both tillage and pasture in the surrounding fields. The church is positioned close to the road on the N side of a graveyard (TS081-010003-) which may form part of a larger enclosure (TS081-010002-). The church (dims. 18.4m x 8.65m) is aligned E-W and constructed of limestone masonry, roughly coursed. The E gable is in good condition and is fully intact, though ivy clad. The N wall (H 2.2m above int.; H 3m above ext.; Wth c. 1m) is heavily ivy clad, as is the S wall, though a section towards the W end has collapsed. The W wall has completely collapsed, but the wall-footings are visible. In the E gable there are two single-light windows, the heads obscured by ivy, but according to the OS Letters the windows were 'shamrockheaded' which implies a cusped-ogee or trefoil-headed window (O'Flanagan 1930, vol.1, 14). The interior ground level is raised above the exterior. Towards the W end of the N wall there is a broken-out section of masonry (Wth 0.85m), possibly a broken-out narrow single-light window with a crude relieving arch above it. A portion of the S wall near the E gable only survives to c. 0.8m above the interior and there may have been a window at this point. The doorway is likely to have been towards the W end of the S wall, where there is a broken-out gap in the masonry. According to the OS Letters there was a 'rude doorway in the north wall', but this does not correspond to the surviving evidence (O'Flanagan 1930, vol. 1, 14).

- TS081-010002 Ecclesiastical enclosure
Description
According to Killanin and Duignan (1967, 133) the church at Whitechurch (TS81-010001-) is surrounded by 'an ancient, circular enclosure'. It is possible that the present stone-walled graveyard (TS081-010003-) forms the SW quadrant of a larger, roughly circular enclosure. Faint traces of this possible enclosure are visible on the N side of the road, opposite the church, on an aerial photograph (CUCAP 19 July 1970 BDS 24). Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- TS081-010003 Graveyard
Description
On the crest of a natural rise in gently undulating terrain, both tillage and pasture in the surrounding fields. The church (TS81-010001-) is positioned close to the road on the N side of the irregularly-shaped graveyard (max. dims. 47m N-S; 59m E--W). The gravestones within the church and in the surrounding graveyard are 18th, 19th and 20th century in date. The graveyard which may form part of a larger enclosure (TS081-010002-).
