Ballacregga, Agneash Keeill
Archaeology
The site of an early medieval keeill or chapel, which would have been in use during the period AD500 to AD1000. It is said to have stood on the north side of the road from Ballayolgane near the bend and is still remembered by the name 'The Old Church'.
The 'Kell y Cowle' of the 1703 Man Roll refers to this chapel, which was a Cell Comgall of Bangor, the monastery which held lands in Kirk Patrick. The site is now occupied by a garden and no visible trace remains of the chapel.
