Kill of the Grange Ecclesiastical Site
Kill of the Grange church lies within the enclosure of a previous early Christian monastery of Clonkeen, which dated back to the 6th century and was founded by Saint Fintan.
The church ruins that remain today are pre-Norman in date, with the chancel being a late-medieval addition. Excavations of the enclosure were carried out in 2018 which were said to have ‘unearthed evidence of the earliest phases of activity at the site.’”
As well as the church, there is a holy well, said to possibly be associated with Saint Mogue, and bullaun stones. The smaller of the two stones contains an inscription of ‘DOM’, meaning ‘Lord’ in Latin. The stones are based outside the graveyard, while two medieval cross bases exist within the graveyard.
