The National Monuments Service's description
Church of Ireland chapel built in 1739 situated at the E end of a roughly rectangular contemporary graveyard. Davies (1948,95) claimed that the site is ancient and 'marked on the Baronial map'. Nothing visible at ground level at this location.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
