dimension W0.16 L 0.47 H 0.58 A second fragment of medieval tracery window. This church was described in 1691 by George Story as ‘A little to the right of the Town [Ballymore] as you go to Athlone, stood a pretty Church upon a rising ground; about a hundred and twenty yards from which there lies a spot of ground about six acres, which is almost an island, by reason of a great Lough to the East, North, and North-East; and on the North-West there is Bogg; a small neck of land running from the Church on the South-West, prevents it from being altogether an island’ (Story 1693, 87-8).
