The National Monuments Service's description
In level pasture; no visible surface trace of graveyard (CO077-018001-) or church marked 'site of' on 1935 OS 6-inch map. The 1842 OS 6-inch map shows irregular shaped graveyard with rectangular structure at centre, named 'Church (in ruins)'. Little appears to be known of this site; nearby to E, remains of Inchicrenagh Castle (CO077-02101-).
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.
