Recorded monuments
- GA044-065001 Church
Description
Towards foot of a S-facing slope, 50m N of the Grange River. A poorly preserved overgrown rectangular church (E-W; L 17.1m, Wth 7.5m), only the corners of which stand to any height above the foundation courses which survive throughout. A later wall has been built upon N wall and E gable. The only architectural features visible are the site of a doorway at W end of S wall, and two robbed window opes at mid-point and E end of same wall. The large gap, now blocked, in E gable probably also marks the site of a window. In the CBG (GA044-065002-), which lies immediately to S, some architectural fragments, including part of an arch, have been reused as grave-markers. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.

Numerous haphazardly placed set stones indicate graves, including a number of cut-stone fragments from the adjoining church.
