The National Monuments Service's description

Located immediately north of Malahide estuary. The site comprises a raised oval area, aligned E-W (L 27m, Wth 22m, H 1.4m-1.8m) enclosed by a modern wall which appears to have replaced an earlier earthen enclosure. A rectangular sunken feature aligned E-W, towards W end of graveyard is probably the remains of the church (L 8.0m, Wth 6.9m) (Healy 1975, 25). extremely overgrown.
