• TS059-024001 Church
  Description

  In improved pasture, on a NE-facing slope, just above a steep break of slope. The church is not visible at ground level. It is depicted on the 1840 ed. OS 6-inch map as a rectangular building (dims. 13m ESE-WNW; 4.5m NNE-SSW) named 'Templemacduagh'. A holy well (TS059-024002-) named 'Tobarmacduagh' is depicted c. 10m to the S. There are numerous undulations in the field but nothing discernible. A large mature beech tree in the area of the church is within a gentle hollow which may have formed as a result of root activity. Lush grass and nettles surround the base of the tree. According to O'Flanagan (1930, 253), 'In the townland of Alleen-Ryan is the site of the old Church called Teampull Mhic Duach and near it a holy well called Tobar Mhic Duach…'. The area is not known of locally as a church site, but a wooded area nearby to the ESE is reputed to have been a graveyard. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011

• TS059-024002 Ritual site - holy well
  Description

  In improved pasture, on a NE-facing slope, just above a steep break of slope. The well is defined as a sunken area (dims. c. 3m NNE-SSW; 1.75m ESE-WNW; D 0.4m) (long axis NNE-SSW) with a deeper hole within the SSW area which is most likely to be the source. According to local information, the people of the area took turns to clean the well and took pride in it. There is a mature beech tree c. 11m to the S and according to local information this is called the 'Coola tree'. According to O'Flanagan (1930, 253), 'In the townland of Alleen-Ryan is the site of the old Church called Teampull Mhic Duach and near it a holy well called Tobar Mhic Duach which is still visited by a few pilgrims on Saturdays and crowds on Good Fridays.'
