A new house was erected recently by the Irish Land Commission for Mr John Prout on a portion of the site of the church
Tradition states that the Going family removed the stones of the church and the tombstones from the graveyard and used them as building material for their mansion in Ballyphilip.
In the demolition of the mansion by the Irish Land Commission in 1935 one of the workmen found that a tombstone had been used as a window lintel on the south side of the house. It bore the following inscription :-
"Here lies the body of William Fitzgerald of Lickfin and his wife Mary Brophy who died in 1813"
