The Little Church of King Cormac. Drive down the the R448 from Kilcullen, near Walls of Kilgowan you cross over the M9 Mororway, about 2 km down the road take the turning L8082 on your left, after 1.5 km you come to a T junction, now take a left and 800m on your right you will see Killeen Cormac – The Little Church of King Cormac ! But the church is gone. Was he really buried there. Who was he? What are the Ogham pillars saying, why has one got Roman Numerals.
