The National Monuments Service's description

This record refers to displaced fragments of cut stone which came from the 17th-century church (DG012-002001-). Doherty (1891, 52) records that the E window of the church was originally of cut stone, and that many of the dressed fragments and mullions were scattered on the ground. They were not located by the Donegal Survey. (Lacy et al. 1983, 254, no. 1539).
