Church in County Limerick, Ireland
Clonkeen Church is a medieval church and a National Monument in County Limerick , Ireland.[1] [2] [3] [4]
Location
[ edit ]
The church is located on the R506 road , near Barringtonsbridge approximately 6 km (3.7 mi ) southeast of Annacotty , north of the River Mulkear .[5]
History
[ edit ]
A monastery was founded here by Saint Mo-Diomog (feast day 10 December)[6] in the 6th or 7th century. [7] The present church dates to the mid-12th century (based on its similarity to Aghadoe Cathedral , dated to 1158).[8]
The church was ruined by 1657.[9]
Church
[ edit ]
Clonkeen Church is a small rectangular church with antae at the east and west ends. The west part of the church, incorporating the west doorway is Romanesque , built of roughly coursed large stones, mostly sandstone . It has a well-preserved doorway with an arch of three orders , with Romanesque carving around the jambs .[10] [11] [12]
The capitals and columns with chevrons are similar to those at Aghadoe .[13]
