Description
In the angle formed by the junction of the rivers Nore and Dinin. A broad high gravel ridge terminates a little before the river confluence. It slopes very steeply on its E and S side down to the river flood plain and rather more gently down to the Nore on the W. The upper and W side of the ridge is largely reclaimed pasture. From the top of the ridge there are very fine views in all directions. According to Carrigan (1905, vol. 2, 208), 'One hundred and ten yards north of the above church, is the castle of Ardaloo. The people say it was the residence of the monks attending the church. It is 37 ft. [c. 11.3m] by 30 ft. [c. 9m] externally. The north wall is 5 ft. [c. 1.5m] thick; the side walls, on which rested the stone arch over the first storey, are 8 [c. 2.4m] or 9 ft. [c. 2.7m] thick. The fragment now remaining has three very narrow loops, and is but 17 ft. high. A narrow passage, between two parallel walls, 30 yds. [c. 27.5m] long, runs south from the castle, connecting it, at the end, with other buildings, the foundations of which are yet visible'. The castle, depicted on the 1st (1839) 6-inch OS map and subsequent 1946-7 revision, is not visible at ground level. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 21 December 2016

In the angle formed by the junction of the rivers Nore and Dinin. A broad high gravel ridge terminates a little before the river confluence. It slopes very steeply on its E and S side down to the river flood plain and rather more gently down to the Nore on the W. The upper and W side of the ridge is largely reclaimed pasture. From the top of the ridge there are very fine views in all directions. Carrigan (1905, vol. 2, 208) noted that, 'At a distance of 160 yds. [c. 146m] north of the church [KK014-031----] already described, 120 yds. [c. 109m] due east of the castle [KK014-029----], and 80 yds. [c. 73m] from the Dinin, stood the most ancient church called Thomple-Glhozheen [probably Teampall Ghlasín which translates as the church of the little stream]. The people say it was "the second church named in Rome," an expression never used except in reference to our oldest churches. It, too, was built on a limestone bed, elevated 16 or 20 feet over the adjacent river. it stood east and west and was of considerable dimensions. Its walls, where highest, are now not more than one foot over the surface, but a very little excavation would suffice to lay bare the whole foundation of the sacred structure. Around it lies the ancient churchyard [KK014-030002-], but interments have been discontinued since about 1770. There are no head-stones or appearances of graves. Formerly people used to gather here on Good Friday to pray and pilgrim'. The church is not visible at ground level. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 2 June 2020

Description
In the angle formed by the junction of the rivers Nore and Dinin. A broad high gravel ridge terminates a little before the river confluence. It slopes very steeply on its E and S side down to the river flood plain and rather more gently down to the Nore on the W. The upper and W side of the ridge is largely reclaimed pasture. From the top of the ridge there are very fine views in all directions. Ardaloo was a grange of the Augustinian Priory of Kells (KK027-029004-), which lies c. 19km to the S (Carrigan 1905, vol. 2, 207-8; Clyne 2007, 33-5). Carrigan (ibid. 207) gives the history as follows, ‘In 1203, William Marshall, Earl of Pembroke, granted and confirmed to the Priory of Kells, in pure and perpetual alms, two carucates of land in Ardelouth. The land thus granted was leased by Reginald, the first Prior, to Simon fitz John Layles, but was restored by Simon’s son, William fitz Simon, to Prior Germanus, by deed of Dec. 24th, 1267. The church of Ardeluth is mentioned among the churches included in the Deanery of Odoch, in a Taxation of Ossory drawn up about 1300. In 1412 the chapel (capella) of Ardelooth was confirmed to the Priory of Kells, by King Henry IV. In 1540, Philip Howleghan, the last Prior, was seised, inter alia, of “three messuages, fifty acres of arable land and twenty of pasture, with the appurtenances, in Ardeloghe.” Thomas, Earl of Ormond, received a grant of Ardelowe from the Crown in 1578’. Only the SW angle (W gable L 1-1.65m; S wall 2-2.55m; H 2-2.4m) of a rectangular roughly coursed rubble limestone church (dims. c. 12m x 7.6m; wall T c. 0.76m), orientated E-W, survives upstanding. According to Carrigan (ibid. 208), ‘The part of the south side-wall still standing, is supported by a buttress extending along its full length; another buttress supported the east end of the same wall, and though the wall itself is here fallen, the buttress remains uninjured. The entrance door, framed with unhewn stones, was in the south side-wall, between the buttresses, but only one side of it is left. This church is called “The Monastery Church”’. The buttresses mentioned by Carrigan are probably a base-batter. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 2 June 2020
- KK014-033 Concentric enclosure
Description
On the crest and NE side of a broad gravel ridge (H 7-8m), running NW-SE, on the floor of the river valley. The ridge has been quarried along the SW side. The River Nore lies c. 440m to the W and the confluence of this river with the Dinin river is c. 660m to the NW. There are commanding views in all directions. A roughly oval enclosure (overall dims. c. 80m NW-SE; c. 65m NW-SE), identified as a cropmark on aerial photographs (CUCAP ASW040, 17 July 1967; AVO094, 17 July 1968; BOD026, 10 July 1973) consisting of two widely spaced fosses. The inner enclosure (dims. c. 40m NW-SE; c. 30m NE-SW) is defined by a wide fosse, berm (Wth c. 12-15m) and outer fosse. The monument is not visible at ground level.
