A 10th-12th century Church in southern Albania

Date:

Does anyone has any information about this old Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Church in southern Albania almost at the border with Greece near the small communities of Peshkëpinë?

As little of the information I’ve found is in either in Albanian or Greek. All I’ve been able to muster is that is believed to have been built somewhere between the 10th-12th century but is mostly attributed to have been built under the reign of Eastern Roman Emperor Alexios I Komnenos (1081-1118).

I ask as I’m a Roman and Eastern Roman history enthusiast and I’m always hunting for these destinations when I travel to Albania and I happen to have missed this one which is not all that far from the famous one in Labove e Kryqit.
