Bowman (1934, 178) recorded 'church site (14480) and burial ground in Mr Kenny's land. No sign of either there now'. Exact location not known locally. May be small triangular area (c. 15m NW-SE; c. 10m NE-SW) at bend in road, enclosed by earthen field fence (H 1.1m). Interior overgrown; no grave markers evident. According to local information, executions were carried out here during penal times.
