Keeill Crore

Archaeology

The site of an early medieval chapel and burial ground known as Keeill Crore, thought to have been in use between AD500 and AD1000. The name is thought to be derived from the keeill (chapel) of Crore or Crogh i.e. 'Cruimthir' - priests.  Nothing now remains but the site is marked by a little triangular plot below the road by the side of Glion Keeill Crore stream.  It was formerly part of the Bishop's Barony.
