The National Monuments Service's description
All that survives of Kiltuck church (DU026-054001-) are the overgrown foundations of a rectangular building defined on three sides by rough large boulders. In 1837 Eugene O'Curry of the Ordnance Survey described that 'there were traces to the south-east of the church of another small square building standing on the south-east of the church' (Ball 1902, 119). No surface remains visible of this building now standing in a green area of a modern housing estate.
