Place & story
Arklow, Kilbride and Redcross
Ennereilly’s rectory was separated from Arklow by an act of council in 1833 and formed part of the union of Kilbride when Samuel Lewis wrote in 1837. He also noted that a small part of the parish lay within the perpetual curacy of Redcross. These are ecclesiastical arrangements, rather than a statement that the civil parish disappeared. Lewis found the church in ruins and recorded two raths or moats in the grounds of Kilpatrick, one of the named residences in this coastal parish north of Arklow. [2]
