The National Monuments Service's description
According to the OS Letters (1840) 'About a furlong to the east of the [Killusty] castle is shown in a green field a spot where, it is said, the Church called Cill Osta stood, from which the Townland derived its name. There is not a vestige of it now traceable' (O'Flanagan 1930, vol. 1, 82 (220)). The present owners of Killusty Castle (TS070-106001-) are not aware of any church in the vicinity of the tower house. This possible church is unlocated within the townland.
