Place & story
Church, graveyard and neighbouring remains
A field account published by Pilgrimage in Medieval Ireland in February 2017 describes Baptistgrange’s ruined church at the centre of a historic graveyard near Lisronagh. Remains of a deserted village lay to its north-west, with a castle site to the west. Dense vegetation prevented a close examination of the church during that visit. Only part of its western gable was visible, and the nearby field boundary made that end difficult to photograph. These observations record the site’s condition at that particular visit. [2]
