Place & story

Support from the Board of First Fruits

Samuel Lewis described Killaconenagh’s church in 1837 as a small building with a low square tower. The Board of First Fruits had lent £500 towards its construction. The glebe-house received separate assistance in 1821: a £250 gift and a £550 loan. Lewis recorded forty-two acres of glebe and identified Killaconenagh as part of the Bearhaven benefice united with Kilnamanagh and Kilcateerin in 1795.^[2]
