Knocksharry Keeill
Archaeology
The site of an early medieval keeill or chapel and burial ground thought to have been used between circa AD500 and AD1000. The name of this Keeill is lost as is that of the Treen. The raised plateau is a natural bank of gravel and now reduced to a triangular area about 38 metres by 18 metres. Lintel graves have been noted here. The site is occupied by a modern house and garden and no identifiable feature remains.
