The National Monuments Service's description

Depicted on the 1839 'OS 6-inch' map as a rectangular area (map dims. c. 60m E-W; c. 35m N-S) with outline of church (CW004-012001-) indicated in eastern half. The 1908 OS '6-inch map' depicts it as a sub-circular raised area and notes that it is 'disused'. Two crosses and holed stone stand on summit (see CW004-012003-, CW004-012004- and CW004-012005-).
