Place & story

A group of recorded monuments

The National Monuments Service records five associated monuments within Inch: a children’s burial ground, an ecclesiastical enclosure, a cross-slab, a leacht and a cross-inscribed stone. Their recorded locations form a small cluster in the southeastern part of the townland. The separate classifications distinguish the burial area and enclosure from the individual stone monuments. The register identifies this Inch by Magunihy barony and Brewsterfield electoral division, separating it from the coastal Inch in Corkaguiny. [2]
