## Recorded monuments (Sites and Monuments Record, National Monuments Service)

- WI019-011001: Church, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CWI019-011001-. Situated on a gentle NE-facing slope near the public road. The church formed part of the Archbishop of Dublin's manor of Castlekevin at the beginning of the thirteenth century and both church and associated lands were granted by Archbishop Henry de Loundres to the Priory of St Thomas's (outside Dublin) between 1212 and 1225 (Ronan 1928, 136-7). A simple rectangular structure (int. L 21.9m; int. Wth 5.5m; wall T 0.84m). The N wall and W gable survive largely intact; the remainder consists of the foundations only. Described in the OS Letters as a door with pointed arch in the S wall (O'Flanagan 1928, 79). The church is in the centre of a quadrangular graveyard (max. dims. 40m E-W; 30m N-S) enclosed by a modern stone wall. The S wall follows a gentle curve. A cylindrical granite font sits against the W wall of the graveyard. Date of upload/revision: 28 September 2012
- WI019-011002: Graveyard, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CWI019-011002-. Situated on a gentle NE-facing slope near the public road. The church (WI019-011001-) formed part of the Archbishop of Dublin's manor of Castlekevin at the beginning of the thirteenth century and both church and associated lands were granted by Archbishop Henry de Loundres to the Priory of St Thomas's (outside Dublin) between 1212 and 1225 (Ronan 1928, 136-7). The church is in the centre of a quadrangular graveyard (max. dims. 40m E-W; 30m N-S) enclosed by a modern stone wall. The S wall follows a gentle curve. A cylindrical granite font sits against the W wall of the graveyard. Date of upload/revision: 28 September 2012
- WI019-011003: Font, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CWI019-011003-. Located against the W wall of Killiskey graveyard (WI019-011001-). A cylindrical granite block (diam. at top 0.72m-0.74m; H 0.5m) with a circular basin (diam. at top 0.53m; diam. at base 0.43m; D 0.2m). The sides are sloping and the base is dished. A drain hole exists at one side and is recessed into side of basin. The hole narrows to 2cm across, and expands to 8cm across where it exits the side of the font. The rim immediately around the mouth of the basin takes the form of a flat ledge (3cm wide) that is slightly lower than the outer circumference of the rim. This was clearly designed to accommodate a lid. On the outer circumference of the rim are three small holes (one directly above the drain hole). These are sub-rectangular in shape with rounded bases (ranging from 3cm to 3.5cm long, 1.5cm wide and 1cm to 2cm deep). Roughly half of the body of the font has been formed into four facets that are defined by raised ridges on the upper part, opening out into fluting that splays out towards the base of the stone. There is a lack of consistency in how this was done. Presumably this was the part of the font that was meant to be seen. The body of the font where the drain hole exists is rounded, so perhaps this side of the font formed the rear. Compiled by: Chris Corlett and Claire Breen Date of upload: 8 June 2012

Works at or in relation to a recorded monument need two months' written notice to the National Monuments Service (National Monuments (Amendment) Act 1994, section 12).

A townland is the smallest land division of Ireland, and the unit of a rural address; old registers such as the 1901 and 1911 censuses file it under its civil parish and barony.

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
