The National Monuments Service's description
In pastureland, within an irregularly shaped graveyard in Kilconnell village. Evidently gone by 1838 when according to OS Letters (O'Flanagan 1927, Vol. 1, 593), 'This parish ..... is called in Irish Cill Chonaill, which means the church of St. Conall. Of the ancient church, which originally bore this name, no remains are now visible'. A possible standing stone (GA086-124003-) is associated.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'. Compiled by Olive Alcock, Kathy de hÓra and Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999).
