Church, Lagakilleen, Co. Mayo

Lagakilleen is not a name that appears on most maps of County Mayo, yet somewhere within this quietly named townland there stands the remains of a church old enough to have earned a place on the national record of monuments.

That alone signals something worth pausing over. Rural Mayo is scattered with the remnants of early Christian and medieval ecclesiastical buildings, many of them roofless, overgrown, and known only to the farmers whose land surrounds them. The church at Lagakilleen belongs to that overlooked category of place, recorded but not yet widely documented in the public domain.
