Recorded monuments

• WX028-002 Ritual site - holy well
  Description

  Marked only on the 1924 ed. of the OS 6-inch map where it is described as St. Mochain’s Well. St Mochonóg is an early saint of Saxon and British parentage (Ó Riain 2011, 464), who is thought to have founded a monastery at Kilmuckrige (Ranson 1945, 53-4) and also at Galen, Co. Offaly (OF014-029----). The well is situated in mixed woodland in the valley of a small NW-SE stream on the NE bank and c. 30m from the stream. It is approached from the SE by a grass-covered concrete path. This is a natural spring within a square concrete-covered and white-washed enclosure (ext. dims. 1.25m N-S; 1.27m E-W; H 0.92m) with a pyramid canopy topped with a concrete cross and base. There is an arched opening (Wth 0.47m; H 0.41m) through the wall (T 0.5m) on its W side. The well is still venerated, but St. Mochonóg has no recorded feast-day. According to a marble plaque set over the opening the well was restored and probably brought into its present form in 1921, but patterns had been held at the well around the 27th September until c. 1900 (IFC Schools’ Collection, vol. 0887, 63-8). Killincooly church site (WX028-003001-) is c. 130m to the SE. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 31 July, 2012 Amended: 5 February 2020

• WX028-003001 Church
  Description

  Situated in the valley of a NW-SE stream, c. 50m from the NE bank. The site of the parish church of Killincooly is within a raised subrectangular graveyard (dims. 33m E-W; 31m N-S) defined by masonry walls that are curved outwards at the N and S. According to a Visitation by Thomas Ram, the Protestant bishop of Ferns, in 1615 this church was impropriate to Henry Wallop and the name of the priest, if any, is not recorded. Nor is the condition of the church building recorded (Hore 1900-11, vol. 6, 268). The church is depicted as a rectangular structure (dim. c. 15m E-W) on the 1839 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, but there is no visible traces of it at ground level. There is a granite stone (dims. 0.5m x 0.32m x 0.3m) with a perforation and petal like decoration in relief on one side in the graveyard. There are also two polished quartz bowls and a fragment of a single stone cresset. St Mochain's Well (WX028-002----) is c. 130m to the NW. (Ranson 1945, 53-4) The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wexford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1996).
