}}Church Island ({{Lang-ga|Inis Mór}}, "big island") is an island situated in Lough Gill, Ireland.[1][2]

The island

Church Island is an island of {{Convert|16.8|ha|abbr=on}} located in the centre of Lough Gill.[3]

Church

The church is said to have been founded by Lommán of Trim.

The church on Church Island is National Monument #118.

It is an early Christian ruin and belonged to the Ó Ruairc, rulers of Bréifne. The building is oblong, has loophole windows and a recess at one end. Near the door there is a cavity in a rock, known as ‘lady's bed’, which was a frequent place of pilgrimage for pregnant woman.[4] In 1416, according to the Annals, ‘The church of Inis Mor, in Lough Gill, was burned; and Screaptra ui Chuirnin [O'Curnin's manuscripts], and the Leabhar Gearr of the O'Cuirnins, as well as many other precious articles, were burned also.’[5]
