The National Monuments Service's description

Shown on 1842 OS 6-inch map in SE quadrant of possible early ecclesiastical enclosure (9798). 1903 OS 6-inch map shows large enclosure removed due to reorganisation of field system; burial ground shown as irregular area and termed 'disused'. In pasture, on S-facing slope. Irregular area (34m N-S; 40m E-W) enclosed by low degraded earthen bank. Interior heavily overgrown; burials marked by large uninscribed boulders.

The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 3: Mid Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
