Forming NW corner of graveyard (14540). Ruinous remains of rectangular church (14.3m E-W; 7.2m N-S), built of mud-mortared sandstone rubble; surviving walls low and densely overgrown. Outer facing of SE corner visible, also W end of S wall (L 2m; H c. 0.75m). West end collapsed but width (c. 0.6m) evident. Gap (Wth c. 1m), towards W end of S wall, probably remains of doorway; upright rectangular stone on E side of gap probably door jamb. According to OS Field Book, greater portion of walls were standing c. 1840 (Grove White 1905-25, vol. 1, 161). Known locally as Killeran or The Kiles (ibid.).
