The National Monuments Service's description
The raised graveyard is sun-rectangular in plan (L 50m, Wth 40m) bounded to north, east and south by modern breeze block wall. It is bounded to the west by a limestone wall. St David's Church of Ireland stands in the centre. There are 18th and 19th century headstones which have been previously been surveyed (Fingal Historic Graveyards Project, 2008). The graveyard is still in use.
