 Of the ancient church there are no remains, and the extensive graveyard 

 contains nothing of very special interest. 



At west end of the graveyard is a vault-like, subterranean chamber, 

 approached by a flight of stone steps, and secured by a strong iron gate. This 

 was used as a kind of mortuary chapel, wherein bodies were deposited for a

The parish name appears as Glynmaygyr in the Taxation of Pope 

 Nicholas, as St. Mary's of Glanmire in the Presentation of 1437 (Caulfield 

 MSS., quoted by Brady, vol. i, p. 349).
