The Islandeady graveyard contains the ruin of a church
which was established in the early part of the 13th
century (early 1200's). The church is believed to have
been founded by Saint Eiden. The dimensions of the church are given as 52 feet by 18 feet 6 inches. The church was restored, in part, in 1990 by a Fás scheme.
