O'Donovan (OSL 1839, 365) recorded tradition of church site and finding of bones. In recent years ploughing has also turned up rotary quern fragment and bones, probably from a graveyard (CW003-021002-). Cross base (CW003-022----) may be connected with this site. See also (CW003-020----) and (CW003-019----).
