The National Monuments Service's description
Price (1967, 441) noted that 'a new church was built near Dunganstown House in the latter part of the seventeenth century (? c. 1670)'. The possible location for this is at St. Kevin's church, where the tower structure to the WNW appears to be earlier in date than the rest of the church.
