Conservation works were undertaken to the west gable of the extant Killagh Abbey church. The work involved resetting the corner stones of the north-west corner, raking out and repointing the stonework of the west gable and resetting stones on the parapet. The works were carried out by conservation-approved stone masons and overseen by a conservation engineer. No archaeological excavation took place.
