An 'Old Graveyard' is depicted on the OS 1st Ediotn Map.
'Na Claignean' means 'The Skulls'. No remains of church exist. It is not known if it was Roman Catholic or Protestant. There is an old graveyard near it. Name Book 1875
Only a slight, rectangular hollow with traces of stone footings of a wall on its west side is evident at site of church. No precise measurements are possible but it may have measured c.15m x 3.5m. Only the turfed-over footings of the nearby graveyard remain; it appears to have measured c. 23 x 15m although a later extension may have given it overall measurements of 23 x 31 m.
