About

Fossy Church is located about 800 m (870 yd) southeast of Timahoe, in a walled graveyard.

Fossy Church is thought to date to the late 16th century. The church was remodelled in 1608. Some repair work was carried out in 1903.

The church is rectangular in shape with upstanding walls and gables, with door and window opes, built of uncoursed rubble, with a slight base- batter. A piscina is located in the southeast corner.
