The National Monuments Service's description
Aghanunshin Old Church (DG053-019-): The surviving church ruins were probably built post 1622 (see Royal Commission, 218). The church continued in use until the mid-nineteenth century when the chapel of ease in Cornagill townland was built (Rowan 1979, 346; OS 6-inch map, 2nd edition).
The above description was derived from the 'Archaeological Survey of County Donegal. A description of the field antiquities of the County from the Mesolithic Period to the 17th century.' Compiled by: Brian Lacey with Eamon Cody, Claire Cotter, Judy Cuppage, Noel Dunne, Vincent Hurley, Celie O'Rahilly, Paul Walsh and Seán Ó Nualláin (Lifford: Donegal County Council, 1983). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated.
