- WX032-004 Moated site
Description
Situated on a slight W-facing slope with a N-S branch of the River Sow c. 240m to the W. This is a rectangular grass and scrub-covered area (dims. 51m E W; 42m N S) defined by moats that are best preserved at N (Wth 6.5m; D 0.7-0.8m) and S (Wth 8m; int. D1.4m; ext. D 1m). The moat is visible on the E side (Wth 6m; int. D 0.3m; ext. D 1.1m) but on the W side it is obscured by a N-S field bank and laneway. A leat enters the moats at the SE angle. Archaeological testing (07E0077) immediately to the W on a triangular site (dims. c. 70m N-S; c. 65m E-W) produced no related material (McLoughlin 2010), and testing (13E0216) c. 50-100mto eh NE-E had a similar result (McLoughlin 2013; excavations 2013:500). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wexford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1996). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 31 August, 2012 Amended: 24 November 2020
- WX032-005001 Church
Description
Situated on a slight rise at the W edge of a broad N-S ridge with the valley of the NW-SE River Sow c. 500m to the SW. This is the site of the parish church of Kilmallock within a raised oval graveyard (dims. c. 55m NW-SE; c. 45m NW-SE) defined by a masonry wall NE-S-NW, but the perimeter has been removed elsewhere and the graveyard extended to the NW-SE public road (max. dim. c. 40m N-S). According to a Visitation by Thomas Ram, the Protestant bishop of Ferns, in 1615 Garret McTege was the priest, and the church and chancel were in repair (Hore 1900-11, vol. 6, 272). Two small amorphous fragments of a wall foundation of the NW corner of a structure (dims. 6m E-W; 5m N-S) are at the centre of the graveyard. The site of St Mary's Well (WX032-006----), where patterns were held on the 15th August in the 19th century according to John O’Donovan writing c. 1840 (O'Flanagan 1933, vol. 1, 356) lies c. 350m to the S. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wexford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1996). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload/revision: 31 August, 2012 Amended: 4 Sep. 2013

The site of the parish church of Kilmallock (WX032-005001-) is within a raised oval graveyard (dims. c. 55m NW-SE; c. 45m NW-SE) defined by a masonry wall NE-S-NW, but the perimeter has been removed elsewhere and the graveyard extended to the NW-SE public road (max. dim. c. 40m N-S).

- WX032-006 Ritual site - holy well
Description
Marked on the 1839 and 1925 eds of the OS 6-inch map and described as St. Mary’s Well on both. It is located on a gentle SW-facing slope with the NW-SE River Sow c. 150m to the SW. According to John O’Donovan writing c. 1840 the pattern was held on the 15th August (O'Flanagan 1933, vol. 1, 356), but the well is no longer visible at ground level in pasture. It is described locally as having had a canopy and steps leading down to it, but there is no memory of a pattern. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 31 August, 2012
