A small stone church
Kineagh Church stands at Ballycook in County Carlow. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage records a stone Church of Ireland building from the early 1830s, with a single main cell and two bays. Its porch and vestry project from that body, while buttresses and a bellcote distinguish the exterior. The inventory rates its architectural, artistic and social interest as regional. [2]
