An image of the ruins of St. Senan’s Church in Inniscarra, County Cork. This Anglican church was built in the early Georgian period, with a tower added in about 1756. It was abandoned after the construction of new Anglican church in the locality in 1819. The older church is now in a ruinous condition. The church was dedicated to Senán mac Geirrcinn, an early Irish Christian missionary, who reputedly founded a church at this location in the sixth century. An annotation on the reverse of the print reads ‘Sweet Inniscarra’. The photograph is credited to Ita McNally, 11 South Mall, Cork.
