dc.descriptionSouth Dublin Village Walks - Templeogue Step 9: Medieval Church Ruins and Burial Ground. Templeogue graveyard is the site of an early monastery which gave the townland its name. A list of saints in the Book of Lecan includes Molcae tigi Molocal – in documents of the 13th century the name is written Tachmelog (St. Melog’s house or church). No part of the church can be dated to the time of the original monastery but part of it may be earlier than the Norman Invasion. In 1615, the church was reported to be utterly in ruin. Externally, the building measures 17.68 x 5.72 metres. The east gable is complete and contains a late splayed window. The north wall is about 50cm high, uniform, and with no indication of a door opening. The south wall has a distinct kink about half way along with a buttress outside. The western end of this wall is about three metres high. The west wall has a doorway about midway with steps leading up to it and there are three early cross-inscribed slabs in the burial ground, one of which is deeply sunk within the church.en_IE
