The National Monuments Service's description
O’Donovan in the OS Letters (1838, 266-267 (138-9)) and Neary (1913-4, 25) suggested that there may have been a church associated with an enclosure (MA014-061005-), cross (MA014-061003-) and two children’s burial grounds (MA014-061001-; MA014-062001-), but there is no evidence to confirm this.
