The National Monuments Service's description
In pasture, on S-facing slope. Arc NW->N (C 50m) of earthen bank (H 0.8m) with external fosse to N, incorporated into field boundary system c. 50m to NNE of church site (14495). Power (1932, 124) describes 'the outline of a former circular enclosing bank' around church as 'faintly traceable' in field fence to N as well as in 'the field surface itself (Regan's farm)'. Section of earth and stone field fence (H 1m) immediately E of site of church is curved (C 20m) and may incorporate part of inner enclosure or graveyard boundary.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
