The Romanesque church was built in the 12th century over an older monastery that is said to have been founded by St. Maolcethair († 636) of the Iro-Scottish Church. The Romanesque doorway has a tympanum with a head on one side and an animal on the other. In the church ruins there is a culturally and historically important, perforated Ogham stone and a cross slab.
