The National Monuments Service's description

On W side of road; irregularly-shaped graveyard enclosed by stone wall; in occassional use. Partially overgrown with headstones dating from 1796 (Coleman 1910-12d). In NW corner remains of ancient parish church (CO065-020002-) of Templenacarriga (c. 13m E-W; c. 8m N-S) now reduced to overgrown line of foundations of N, E and W walls; S wall entirely removed; interior densely overgrown. No trace of C of I church built here in 1846 (Brady 1863, vol. 2, 394); this was dismantled c. 1905; Coleman (ibid.) noted 'pieces of cutstone lying about inside the entrance' which came from this church.

The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 2: East and South Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1994). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
