Ruins, Urney, Unknown Denomination

Urney Church is an ivy-clad building within a small circular graveyard beside the R. Erne. It consists of a nave, measuring externally 25 x 42½ ft., and an annexe on the west of dimensions 34 x 40 ft., which may have been the priest's house. Of the nave the east gable is nearly complete. In it is an unglazed slit five inches wide and more than 2½ ft. high. The thickness of the ivy obscures the form of the arch. The outer jambs have a plain chamfer on each edge. The inner are ashlar, and splay widely, giving the impression of a Bomanesque structure. The north and south walls have largely fallen. On the south-east was apparently a slit with rough ashlar jambs. Farther west was probably a door; two blocks in the graveyard  seem to have formed part of it.
