Recorded monuments

• SL012-025001 Church
  Description

  Situated in lowlying, poorly-drained pasture, within a graveyard (SL012-025002-). The OS Letters (1836, 310 (127-8)) recorded that 'Templeboy' is an anglicization of 'Teampall Buidhe', 'the church of St. Baothain' who was the patron saint of the parish. Late medieval church (ext. dims. 19.3m E-W; 7.15m N-S - Wall T 0.74m) incorporating the W wall of an earlier church. The E wall has a slight external base batter. Slightly off-centre in the E wall is a tall ogee-headed, lancet window. The W wall is constructed of large blocks, typical of the early medieval period. It contains a blocked-up lintelled doorway. This type of masonry is also present in the W end of the N wall. Close to the W end of the N wall is an internally recessed doorway. The S wall is poorly preserved and is apparently featureless. O'Rorke (1889, 404-5) recorded a holy well (SL012-025006-) dedicated to St. Molaisse, located close to the church. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
