About Celine Pollard
Thank you for taking the time to view my photos. My name is Celine Pollard and I am an avid Irish photographer. I am now residing in Canada after being in Ireland from 2006 to 2014. Previous to that I lived in the USA for 11 years. I travel frequently to Montana and Oregon where my family live. My photos reflect the love I have for travel and nature. I hope to continue to add to my albums as my travels continue. Enjoy.

There is a ruin of an ancient church on Dalkey Island called St. Begnet's Church. It is in very good condition and is Early Christian. The church is believed to date from the ninth or tenth century and is supposedly dedicated to St. Begnet. Saint Begnet lived in the sixth century but little else is known about him. The church is built on a stone plinth. Some characteristics include a flat lintelled west doorway and antaes (wall projections). The fireplace in the church was not added until the nineteenth century when men building the Martello tower on the island took shelter there. An excavation was carried out in 1958 and revealed two burial sites dating from the sixth and the eleventh century. The church has unusually high walls and it is thought that there may have been an area for the priest to live in at the top of the church. The interior of the church was altered during the 1800s.
